Scale Your Product with
a Fractional CPO
Get world-class Chief Product Officer (CPO) expertise when you need it, without the overhead. Perfect for SaaS companies ready to accelerate growth and optimize product strategy with a Fractional CPO.
What is a Fractional CPO?
A Fractional CPO (Chief Product Officer) is an experienced executive who steps into your leadership team on a part-time or interim basis to define, execute, and optimize product strategy. Unlike a consultant who just advises, a Fractional CPO takes ownership. They translate business vision into actionable product plans, helping SaaS teams prioritize effectively and ship features that move key metrics like NRR, ARPU, and activation.
Key areas of focus:
-
Defining product strategy and roadmap alignment
-
Building scalable product processes and OKR systems
-
Coaching product managers and leadership teams
-
Tracking delivery performance and product health

Common Questions
Everything you need to know about hiring interim product leadership.
What is the difference between a Fractional CPO and a Consultant?
While consultants typically advise from the outside, a Fractional CPO embeds within your leadership team. We execute strategy, manage teams, and take ownership of outcomes (OKRs), just like a full-time executive, but on a flexible basis.
How many hours does a Fractional CPO dedicate?
Engagements are tailored to your needs, typically ranging from 1 to 3 days per week. This allows us to be deeply involved in strategy and key meetings while staying cost-efficient compared to a full-time hire.
Do I need a full-time CPO or a Fractional one?
If you are a Seed to Series B company, you likely need high-level strategy but may not justify the cost of a full-time CPO ($250k+). A fractional leader bridges this gap until you scale enough to require (and afford) a permanent executive.
Can you help us hire a full-time CPO later?
Absolutely. Part of our role is often to “fire ourselves” by building the structure and team maturity needed for a full-time handoff. We assist in defining the role, interviewing candidates, and onboarding your permanent successor.
