Tech Debt Elimination by Matt Pulver|

I typically find $10K to $100K in annual waste within the first few weeks. Forgotten services, runaway licenses, vendors on autopilot. My fee pays for itself before the engagement ends.

I find the signal in the noise. The real problems hiding behind technical complexity. The decisions that got you here and what it'll cost if you keep ignoring them.

What You're Actually Dealing With

• A team optimizing for their comfort, not your bottom line
• Technical debt compounding while nobody keeps score
• Consultants billing for problems they'll never finish solving
• Six figures a year bleeding out in forgotten subscriptions, overbuilt infrastructure, and vendors who stopped earning their keep
• The slow realization that you can't challenge any of it because you don't speak the language

You hired smart people. They built something. It worked, mostly. Then time passed.

Now projects take twice as long. Budgets evaporate. Nobody can explain why without a whiteboard and an hour you don't have. You've stopped asking because the answers make you feel stupid.

You're not stupid. You're outgunned.

I've watched this pattern for 25 years. Seen millions disappear into products that will never ship. Watched "temporary" fixes from 2019 become load-bearing infrastructure. Sat in rooms where the only honest answer was "we don't know" but nobody would say it.

How It Happens

• Project launches with clear goals and real momentum
• Small daily decisions pile up where nobody's watching
• The people closest to the problem stop surfacing it
• By the time leadership sees it, the fix costs 10x what prevention would have
• Trust erodes but there's no alternative, so everyone pretends

I don't do drive-by consulting. No 80-page PDF that collects dust. No six-month "transformation roadmap" that transforms nothing.

AutoPilot is me in your corner, continuously. I dig into your systems, find the waste, surface what matters, and keep watching. Problems get caught before they become fires. You get plain-English reports, not dashboards you'll never check. Direct access when something needs human judgment.

What Changes in 90 Days

• The waste stops. Forgotten services, runaway licenses, zombie vendors. Gone.
• You stop being surprised. Problems surface early, in English, with options.
• Your team ships instead of firefighting. Because someone else is watching the perimeter.
• You can finally challenge a technical recommendation without feeling lost.
• Someone tells you the truth, even when it's expensive to hear.

If you want the truth and you're ready to act on it, let's talk. If you're looking for someone to tell you everything is fine, I'm not your guy.
