Pre-Seed Stage
Fractional Head of Product
at Pre-Seed
At pre-seed, you're testing whether the idea has legs. You don't need a big team or heavy process — you need sharp thinking, fast iteration, and someone who's done this before. We help pre-seed founders move from hypothesis to evidence without burning through runway on premature hires or bloated product builds.
Typical challenges at Pre-Seed
- —No product leadership — the founder is making every product decision alone
- —Building too much before validating whether anyone will pay for it
- —No delivery discipline — work happens reactively with no cadence or structure
- —Struggling to articulate the product vision to potential investors or early hires
What we bring as Head of Product
We take ownership of your product direction. That means defining what to build and why, aligning engineering and commercial priorities, and creating the roadmap discipline that turns founder intuition into repeatable product decisions. We run discovery, shape priorities, and make sure every sprint moves the needle.
A clear product strategy your team can execute against. Roadmaps that connect to revenue. Prioritisation frameworks that survive contact with reality. And a team that ships with purpose, not just velocity.
What Pre-Seed companies need
At this stage, you need senior thinking without senior cost. A fractional leader gives you the strategic layer to make better decisions about what to build, how to validate it, and when to hire — without committing to a full-time executive salary before you've found product-market fit.
