How We Help Founders

Red Leg Dev is a veteran-owned software development consultancy based in Central Florida that builds MVPs, rescues AI-generated codebases, and provides fractional CTO services for startups and SMBs across Tampa, Orlando, and beyond.

MVP Development

Got an idea? We'll build your first version and get it in front of users — most MVPs launch in 4-6 weeks, not 6 months. Go from concept to a working product your customers can actually use.

Vibe Code Rescue

Built something with AI tools but it's falling apart? We'll stabilize it with proper error handling, real auth, and code humans can maintain — so you can stop worrying and start growing.

Ongoing Product Support

Already launched? We'll keep it running, add features, and scale it as you grow. Direct line to the engineer building it. No account manager.

About Us

Built by a veteran. Trusted by founders.

I'm Matt Wagner. Fifteen years building SaaS products in banking, automotive, payroll, healthcare, and education. I started Red Leg Dev because founders kept asking for the same three things: speed, honesty, and code their next engineer can actually read.

Direct access to the engineer building your product. No account manager. No junior-dev rotation. If we're not the right fit, I'll tell you.
