Engineering,
without drama.
Zürich studio since 2019: ship new products, care for live apps, fractional tech lead, and coaching for solo builders.
Ampersand is a small Zürich studio that's been building websites, web apps and software with founders and teams since 2019. We help you turn your idea into a real product, take care of the one you already run, or step in part-time as your tech lead — and we coach the people who'd rather build it themselves.

How we help
Six ways we work with you.
Every project is led by a senior person you can talk to directly — backed by a small, trusted network of senior freelancers we've worked with since 2019.
Rent-a-CTO
Part-time senior tech lead — plan what to build, review what you have, hire engineers, unblock the team, and speak to investors like a CTO.
Development
Websites, web apps, platforms & MVPs — designed and shipped as one senior team, built to grow instead of rewrite.
Monthly Support
Steady monthly care for live software — bugs, speed, security, small features. WordPress & Laravel welcome.
Solo Builder Coaching
Weekly 1:1 coaching to pick tools, get unstuck, and ship.
Consultancy & Audits
Architecture, due diligence, AI & security reviews — second opinions before big commits, delivered as written reports you can act on.
AI Workshops
Half- or full-day facilitation — cut through AI hype, pick one bet worth building, align leadership, leave with a 30-day plan.
