Fractional CTO for AI projects: technical leadership, prototype to MVP, and help securing funding

COO at Kallina AI

Chisinau, Moldova, Republic Of

About

What we take on

  • Technical strategy: what to build, what to buy, what to skip

  • Architecture and choice of AI models, cloud or on-premise

  • Prototype and MVP, built and tested with real users

  • Hiring and guiding developers or external vendors

  • Security, GDPR and readiness for the EU AI Act

Who it is for Companies starting their first AI project, founders with a product idea and no technical partner, teams that want a second opinion before a large investment, and organisations preparing a funded project that needs a technical lead.

Funding for AI projects We use these programmes ourselves: EBRD Star Venture, EuroHPC (5,000 GPU hours approved on the LUMI supercomputer), Microsoft for Startups and NVIDIA Inception. We write our own applications to European and national calls, and we help you pick the right programme and prepare its technical part.

Why us We built and run Kallina, an AI platform with 100+ paying clients, as an AI-native company. The advice comes from what we ship every day.

Meet us Tell us about your project: we'll tell you honestly what to build first and which funding could cover it. Lilia Chetrean, COO · lili@kallina.info
