HEALTHTECH PRODUCT TEAM · POPLIN PROOF

When your healthtech product needs to ship, we're the team you embed.

An embedded senior team — engineers, product, and design — for the funded healthtech that needs to ship a real product to patients, providers, or partners. The same team that built Poplin from scratch.

LEAD PROOF · POPLIN

A funded healthtech founder with a clinical vision — and no engineering team to ship it.

Alexandria DeVito came to Kodius with an idea for a pre-pregnancy wellness companion. We built it with her from scratch into a product couples use across the U.S. The greenfield healthtech build came via word of mouth and earned a 5.0★ Clutch review.

HOW THE ENGAGEMENT REACHED US
" They've been able to overdeliver for the price point and the time invested.
IS THIS YOU?

Three situations bring most healthtech founders to us.

We don't compete with growth agencies or staff-aug shops. We're the team you embed when patient data is already moving through your platform — or about to — and the path forward isn't obvious.

01

You have a funded healthtech vision but no team to build it.

You've raised, you have clinical or domain co-founders, and a prototype that proves the idea — but no engineering team that can ship a real product to patients, providers, or partners. Hiring is slow, and every month without a build is runway burned.

WHAT WE DO

Embed a senior team that owns the build alongside your domain founders — privacy-aware from day one, with auditable releases and a roadmap your board and clinical advisors can read.

02

Your healthtech lead engineer just left.

The person who knew the patient-data model, the integrations with labs or EHRs, and the HIPAA/GDPR posture walked out. Releases stalled, your clinical partners are asking timelines, and the board wants the next quarter to still ship.

WHAT WE DO

Embed a senior team that absorbs the context, keeps the regulated parts shipping, and buys you the runway to hire — or to decide you don't need to.

03

Your AI-built healthtech MVP hit a wall.

You shipped a demo of the intake flow, the symptom tracker, or the patient-facing chat out of Lovable, Bolt, or Cursor. Then real patients started using it and the auth model, audit trail, and schema couldn't carry the privacy or clinical workflow load.

WHAT WE DO

Keep the parts that proved the idea. Rebuild the parts that have to survive contact with patients, partners, and clinical reviewers — without losing the speed that got you to here.

WHAT AN ENGAGEMENT LOOKS LIKE

Two weeks to know what you have.
Then a team that builds it.

Every engagement starts with a fixed-scope, fixed-fee diagnostic. You leave with a written assessment in 14 days — whether or not we ever build together. No long discoveries, no open-ended retainers, no surprise invoices.

STEP 01

2-week diagnostic

A senior engineer and product lead read the code, the integrations, and the data model. You leave with a written assessment in 14 days — whether or not we ever build together.

Fixed fee · 14 days
STEP 02

3–9 month embedded team

3–5 senior engineers, product, and design slot into your stand-ups, repo, and roadmap. We run the build; you run the company, the clinical advisors, and the partner conversations.

Monthly retainer
STEP 03

Weekly demos, monthly retros

Working software every Friday. Monthly retros decide what the team works on next — and what we stop doing. Always reversible.

Always reversible
PRICING

Fixed monthly retainer. No surprise invoices, no hourly games, no ramp-up fees.

OWNERSHIP

You own the code from day one. Repo, infra, accounts — all in your name.

PEOPLE

A named tech lead who shows up on every call. Not a rotating bench.

WHAT WE DON'T DO

Saying no to the wrong work is how we stay good at the right work.

We turn down about three out of every four inquiries. Here's the shape of the work that isn't a fit, so you can read this page and self-select fast.

No hourly staff augmentation.

We don't rent out engineers by the hour. Engagements are fixed-scope teams with a named tech lead, billed monthly.

No white-label subcontracting for marketing agencies.

We don't hide behind another agency's logo. If our work ships under your brand, our name is in the contract.

No pre-seed co-founder-for-equity.

We build for funded teams that can pay. We are not your technical co-founder in exchange for a slice of the cap table.

No RFPs or public-sector procurement.

We won't respond to vendor questionnaires or 90-page RFPs. If your buying process needs that, we are not the right fit.

STACK WE SHIP IN HEALTHTECH

When the situation calls for it,
here's what we run with.

The stack is a tool, not the offer. We choose what we run with after the diagnostic — not before. In healthtech we lean toward boring, auditable, privacy-aware, and well-instrumented.
