Common Questions
What founders ask before working with BitLab.
A fractional CTO is a part-time Chief Technology Officer who provides senior technical leadership without the cost of a full-time executive hire. A full-time CTO costs $180,000-$350,000/year in salary alone, plus equity. BitLab's fractional CTO service starts at $2,000/month and includes a CTO with 20+ years of experience, a senior engineering team, and compliance-native architecture. You get the same strategic leadership at 5-10% of the cost.
BitLab specializes in two regulated industries: healthcare technology (healthtech) and financial technology (fintech). We focus on these verticals because compliance is not optional in healthcare and financial services. HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC2, and HITRUST requirements are built into our architecture from sprint one. We've shipped 50+ products across these verticals with 0 compliance failures.
The free audit includes four deliverables: (1) a full architecture review that maps your system and identifies structural risks, (2) a compliance assessment against HIPAA or PCI-DSS requirements, (3) a technical debt and risk map showing every shortcut your previous team left behind, and (4) a 90-day prioritized roadmap plus a 60-minute strategy call with our CTO Shoukri Kattan. The report is yours to keep whether you hire us or not. No credit card required.
BitLab offers three tiers: Advisory at $2,000/month (weekly strategy calls, architecture review, technology roadmap), Build at $4,000/month (hands-on development leadership, sprint planning, compliance architecture design), and Embedded CTO at $12,000/month (full technical leadership, investor meetings, hiring support, AI/ML implementation). All engagements start with a free 48-hour codebase audit.
Yes. EHR integration is one of BitLab's core capabilities. We have direct experience integrating with Epic, Oracle Cerner, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, ModMed, and 40+ other EHR/EMR systems. Our client MONMEDX is now live in major clinics across the US and Canada with full EMR integration. We evaluate EHR readiness as part of every healthtech codebase audit.
Caesar Health is BitLab's own healthcare AI product, a 7-agent AI platform that automates clinic operations including scheduling, billing, insurance verification, and collections. It runs in HIPAA-compliant medical clinics with 10 clinics signed. Caesar Health is significant because it means BitLab doesn't just advise healthtech startups on compliance. BitLab builds and operates its own HIPAA-compliant healthcare AI, using the same architecture standards we apply to client projects.
50+ products shipped in regulated industries. 0 compliance failures. 15+ rescued projects. We design HIPAA and PCI-DSS into your architecture from day one, so you never pay $38K-$75K to retrofit it later.
