Pit Crew Edition: Hire a CTO Bot, Own Your Roadmap

​F1 is at COTA this week, and no team there lets an outside shop own the car. Plenty of founders do exactly that with their product: they pay an agency by the hour for small changes and can't see the code.

​Bring your repo, your Replit or Render app, or just your backlog. We'll set up a CTO bot, talk through moving your data to a backend you own, and draw a clear line between "quick demo" and "ready for real users," so the bot doesn't rush half-done features out the door.

​Bring your own question: "can a bot really maintain this?", "what do I keep from my agency?", "how do I know it's production quality?" We answer with your code on the screen.

​What you'll leave with

• ​A CTO bot set up on your own product

• ​A demo-versus-production checklist your bot works against

• ​Next steps for the following 30 days

​Hybrid: 16 seats at the East 6th studio (bring a laptop), or join by video. Approval required. 3:00-5:00 PM CT.
