Four ways to work
with Tamara Expression.

Every engagement starts with the problem, not the feature list. Pick the format that fits where you are.

Work
Flagship

01

Problem to MVP in days, not months.

$2,499 flat

Most builds fail because the problem was never sharp enough. We start there: who hurts, how badly, and what would change if it went away. Once the problem is real, I scope, design, and ship a working product with a live URL by end of week. No agency overhead. No handoff fog. No sprint theatre.

Ideal forFounders validating a concept, operators who need an internal tool fast, or anyone who has been burned by agencies and wants to see something real before committing budget.

What's included
1
Problem-framing call60 minutes. We pressure-test the idea: the user, the pain, and whether software is even the right answer.
2
Scoping workshopWe map the one assumption that has to be true for launch and cut everything that isn't.
3
One-page briefWhat we ship, what we cut, and when you see it live. Agreed before a single line of code.
4
Daily iterationsYou're poking at a real product, not a Figma file no one can use.
5
Live URL plus handoffYou own it. Full documentation, backend wired up, and a clear path for the next sprint.
For teams

02

AI & product coaching for teams.

Starting at $150 / hr

Most teams jump to building before the problem is sharp. These sessions teach the muscle that comes before the build: finding real problems, scoping them tight, and using AI tools to ship production software, not polished demos that fall apart under real users.

Ideal forProduct teams adopting AI-native workflows, startup founders who want to build in-house capability, or operators who need to move faster without hiring engineers.
Book a session
Session formats
A
Foundations (half-day)Problem discovery, scoping discipline, and the prompt patterns that separate production builds from prototypes.
B
Live build review (2 hrs)You share your current project. We rebuild the weak parts together and I show you what I would do differently.
C
Team workshop (full day)Hands-on. Every person leaves with a scoped problem and something shipped against it. Pattern library included.
D
Ongoing 1:1 (monthly retainer)Weekly check-in, unlimited Slack questions, and live feedback on everything you ship that month.

03

Fractional product partner.

Starting at $150 / hr

Twelve years of product leadership, embedded in your team at a fraction of a full-time hire. I run discovery, own the roadmap, run the rituals, and build alongside you. For companies that need product momentum but aren't ready for a full-time VP.

Ideal forSeed to Series A companies with engineering capacity but no dedicated PM, or founders who are doing product themselves and burning out on it.
Let's talk scope
What's included monthly
1
Discovery cadenceCustomer conversations, problem framing, and a steady stream of validated work going into the roadmap.
2
Weekly strategy callRoadmap, priorities, and decisions. You stay aligned without losing a day to meetings.
3
Roadmap ownershipI write it, maintain it, and defend it to stakeholders so you don't have to.
4
Active buildingI'm not just advising. I'm shipping features alongside your team every sprint.
5
Monthly retrospectiveWhat shipped, what didn't, and what the next 30 days look like.

04

AI product strategy.

Starting at $150 / hr

Where AI actually earns its keep in your product, and where it doesn't. Most AI strategies are vendor slide decks in disguise. This one starts by finding the real problems in your workflows, then comes back with a prototype, a cost model, and a roadmap you can defend to a board.

Ideal forCompanies evaluating AI features, leadership teams that need a clear answer to "what should we do with AI," or boards asking for an AI strategy without knowing what one looks like.
Start the conversation
Engagement structure
1
DiscoveryTwo sessions with your team to map current workflows, data, and the real problems where AI could change the unit economics.
2
Opportunity mapA prioritized view of where AI applies, what it costs, what it returns, and what the risk looks like.
3
Proof-of-concept buildWe validate the top opportunity with a working prototype before you commit engineering resources to it.
4
Board-ready deliverableA strategy document you can walk into any room with, including vendor and tool recommendations.

How it works

A short loop,
repeated until it ships.

01

Find the problem

A 60-minute call. Who hurts, how badly, and whether software is the right answer. The build doesn't start until this is sharp.

02

Scope

A one-page brief. The one assumption that must be true for launch, what we ship, what we cut. Agreed before a line of code.

03

Build

Daily iterations on a real working product. You test it, not a prototype you can't show anyone.

04

Ship

Live URL, handoff docs, and a clear path for the next sprint. You own it completely.

Start.
