Principal Architect
Ryan Badger
The Unfair
Advantage
The Pain: Most founders are forced to choose: burn cash on bloated agencies or risk quality with unmanaged freelancers. Both kill momentum.
My Capability: I offer a third path. As a Top 0.5% AI-Native Architect, I bring 20B+ tokens of AI experience to the table. This isn't a proprietary tool; it is a mastery of the medium. It allows me to navigate complex builds with the speed and precision of a full engineering team.
The Benefit: You get a Fractional CTO who ships code. No middle management. No translation layers. Just pure, production-ready execution that scales from MVP to IPO.
- Feature: Zero-Debt Architecture from Day 1
- Feature: Validated Top 0.5% Developer Velocity
- Feature: Direct-to-Architect Partnership

Founders Trust Slickrock
“We saved an agricultural company countless hours by implementing an AI vision solution to automate pest tracking. Previously, graduates manually counted bugs on sticky cards in orchards. We turned this into a 3-second camera scan that instantly logged data for precise pesticide dosing.”
“Scaling our distributed call center was impossible with spreadsheet scheduling. Ryan built a custom platform that ingested demand and allowed 30-minute shift trading. It fully automated our staffing, letting us grow without adding a single scheduling manager.”
“I needed a prototype to validate a 'Pokemon Go for local business' concept. We built a photo scavenger hunt app where users guessed locations from zoomed-in photos to earn coupons. The engagement was incredible, and we launched in record time.”
How We
Engineer Excellence
Discovery & Intake
Discovery through AppSpark.ai. We map your unique operational requirements into a technical blueprint.
Engineering Bedrock
We build the foundation. Using AI-augmented architecture to set up a Zero-Debt environment that won't require a rewrite at $10M ARR.
Rapid Cycles
Bi-weekly production cycles. You track progress in real-time through your dedicated Engineering Log.
Production Scale
Bespoke deployment. I launch your native iOS or enterprise web app with full scalability protocols.
Verified
Global
Velocity
I don't just claim speed; I prove it. My development velocity is verified in the top 0.5% of global AI-native engineers—processing over 20 billion operations to date. This means I build in hours what takes traditional developers days, delivering complete systems in 6-8 weeks instead of 6 months.
For context: The average developer uses 1-5 billion tokens per year. At 20.84 billion, I operate at 4-20x the velocity of typical engineers. This isn't theory—it's verified data that explains why I can deliver agency-quality work at freelancer timelines.
What Does Top 0.5% Actually Mean?
Global development platforms track efficiency. Being in the top 0.5% means I'm utilizing AI augmentation more effectively than 99.5% of the market. This directly translates to:
- Faster delivery (weeks instead of months)
- Cleaner code (AI-assisted architecture review)
- Better outcomes (continuous optimization during build)
Zero Debt Engineering
