“Reyem Technologies Inc's work resulted in an increase in our development team's velocity and satisfaction, AI tool adoption, and on-time product delivery. Our team's velocity went from an unknown to a known and stable count, enabling us to have predictable software delivery.”
“Their depth and breadth of knowledge have really stood out. They haven't just focused on building what we've asked for; they've brought forward creative ideas and solutions based on their experience that we hadn't thought of. That collaborative approach has added a lot of value to the project and helped us end up with a better final product.”
“Thanks to Reyem Technologies Inc's work, we've been awarded technology funding, successfully navigated two technology migrations, and made tangible progress on our AI-powered design studio with positive user feedback.”

How the Health Score uses supplied information
The report scores only what expressly supplied intake or kickoff information can support. It identifies evidence gaps instead of investigating beyond those inputs.
Score bands for assessed areas
An overall score is shown only when information expressly provided through intake or kickoff supports scoring at least one area. If no area can be scored, no overall score is calculated. Other areas are identified as coverage gaps rather than scored by assumption or investigated independently.
- Strong 80–100
- Solid 60–79
- Developing 40–59
- At Risk 20–39
- Critical Below 20
How a dimension is scored
An assessed area scores 1 to 5, based on the most severe supported finding. If the supplied information is not enough to assess an area, the report identifies that gap rather than inferring a score.
- 5 No material issues found in supplied evidence
- 4 A Low-severity finding
- 3 A Medium-severity finding
- 2 A High-severity finding
- 1 A Critical finding
Nine areas the review can cover
These are possible review areas, not a checklist we investigate in every engagement. Which areas can be assessed depends on information you expressly provide through intake or at kickoff; gaps are called out rather than researched independently.
The report states what it is based on
Evidence labels explain what the assessment is based on: information or documents you expressly provide through intake or identify at kickoff. The standard Health Check does not include repository or live-system access, stakeholder interviews, or independent investigation. Each assessed area makes the evidence basis clear.
The Health Check does not search systems, access repositories, conduct routine stakeholder interviews, or investigate for unstated issues. Only the kickoff and delivery meetings are included. Any additional interviews or deeper discovery are exceptional, separately agreed, and not guaranteed; deeper discovery may belong in a retainer.
How the Health Check works
Two weeks, fixed scope. The kickoff and delivery meetings are included; other conversations are not part of the standard scope.
-
Week 1

Who actually buys a Health Check
These are common reasons to start. The review covers only information you expressly provide through intake or identify for review at kickoff; it does not investigate beyond those inputs.
Unclear risk or a major technology decision
When this is useful
"Something feels off but I can't articulate it"
Costs creeping, vendor relationships getting tense, a project that's stalled, or just the sense that no one senior is steering. The Health Check converts the unease into a written diagnosis you can act on.
What the check clarifies
As your internal roadmap
Hand the prioritised recommendations to your existing dev team, tech lead, or vendor and execute against them yourself. You get the strategic clarity without committing to a retainer.
When this is useful
Considering a major build, migration, or platform change
Before committing to a build or replatform, use the information you provide to identify relevant risks and questions to resolve. Deeper technical discovery belongs in a separately scoped engagement.
What the check clarifies
As leverage with vendors
Where you provide vendor details, use the report’s summary and risk register to inform contract discussions. The Health Check does not independently investigate vendor arrangements.
External scrutiny or a transaction
When this is useful
Before a fundraise, sale, or due diligence
Investors and acquirers will ask hard technical questions. Walking in with a written assessment you commissioned yourself is a much stronger posture than scrambling to answer questions for the first time across the table.
What the check clarifies
As a due-diligence packet
If you're raising or selling, the Health Check becomes part of the data room. Investors and acquirers expect this kind of artifact — having one ready signals operational maturity.
When this is useful
A client, insurer, or auditor is asking technical questions
When a client, insurer, or auditor asks technical questions, the Health Check can organize the information you provide into a written view of your technology. It does not provide an attestation or guarantee an insurer’s decision.
What the check clarifies
To answer insurers and auditors
Use the report to organize supplied information when answering questions. It is not an attestation or a guarantee of an insurer’s outcome.
A technology leadership change
When this is useful
After a CTO or tech lead departure
Use the information provided to establish a starting point, identify open questions, and shape the replacement role — without turning the Health Check into a separate discovery project.
What the check clarifies
To justify a hire
The report becomes your business case for the headcount you actually need — whether that's a senior engineer, a security lead, or a fractional CTO. It moves the conversation from "I think we should" to "here's what's at risk if we don't."
Preparing to work with us on a retainer
When this is useful
Onboarding into a retainer with us
Most clients who go on to CTO on Tap or Fractional CTO start with a Health Check so session one of the retainer is grounded in a shared, written map — not a cold introduction. The $2,000 credits against your third month if you stay.
What the check clarifies
As the kickoff for an ongoing engagement
Most owners who continue with us start the retainer (CTO on Tap or Fractional CTO) the same week. The full $2,000 credits against your third month if you do — no lock-in.

Health Check FAQs
What's included in the $2,000 Health Check?
Based only on information you provide through intake and expressly bring to kickoff, the Health Check includes a written assessment of your architecture and stack, a risk register of issues identifiable from those inputs, and a prioritised plan with quick wins and a 12-month watch list. We close with a 60-minute delivery meeting so you can ask questions and discuss the recommendations. The $2,000 is fixed — no scope creep, no add-on invoices.
How long does the Health Check take?
About two weeks from kickoff to delivery. The standard scope includes a kickoff meeting and a delivery meeting. We use the information you provide through intake and expressly bring to kickoff; interviews with technical staff are not included or guaranteed. Any additional conversations are considered case by case and require separate agreement.
What does the deliverable look like?
A written PDF report (typically 15–25 pages) covering current state, key risks identifiable from the information you provide, prioritised recommendations, and an appendix of supporting details drawn from those inputs. You own the report — share it with your board, your insurer, a future CTO, or a vendor you're evaluating.
Is the $2,000 refundable or credited if I engage you longer-term?
Not refundable, but the full $2,000 credits against your third month if you're still on an active CTO on Tap or Fractional CTO retainer at that point. CTO on Tap is month-to-month with no minimum term and 30-day notice; Fractional CTO has a 3-month minimum term and 60-day notice. The Health Check is designed to give you a real deliverable whether or not you continue.
Do I need to be technical to follow the report?
No. The report is written for the decision-maker — usually a non-technical owner, CEO, or board. Technical detail lives in an appendix for anyone on your side who wants it. The walkthrough call exists specifically to make sure you can act on the recommendations without needing to translate jargon.
What happens after I get the report?
You decide. Most owners use the report as a roadmap they execute themselves with their existing team or vendors. Some use it as leverage to renegotiate a vendor contract or justify a hire. Others bring us back for ongoing advisory (CTO on Tap) or execution (Fractional CTO). There is no upsell pressure — the report stands on its own.
Can the Health Check feed into a CTO on Tap or Fractional CTO engagement?
Yes — that's the most common path for owners who realise during the process that they want recurring access to senior technical judgement. CTO on Tap is month-to-month with no minimum term and 30-day notice; Fractional CTO has a 3-month minimum term and 60-day notice. Starting with the Health Check means our first retainer session is grounded in a shared, written understanding of your environment rather than a cold introduction.
What if I just want a verbal review, not a written report?
The Health Check is the wrong product for that. We deliberately ship a written deliverable so you have something you own and can act on or share. If you want an informal conversation first, a free 30-minute discovery call is the right starting point — but we'll likely steer you back to the Health Check the moment specifics come up.
