Better Software is a product engineering company built around shipping MVPs and scaling them without accumulating technical debt. Founder and CEO Jai Jalan, a former Microsoft and Google engineer, leads a team of more than 40 engineers and product builders who have taken more than 20 products from idea to market. The company works with founders and executives who need senior engineering talent rather than a large vendor relationship.

Work spans product discovery and MVP development, application development, systems integration, microservices and APIs, performance engineering, and DevSecOps enablement, alongside team augmentation and fractional CTO services. The firm limits itself to 5-7 engagements at a time by design, embedding senior builders directly with client teams rather than spreading capacity thin. Architecture guardrails and code review are standard practice, and AI tooling is used to accelerate each build cycle.

For regulated industries, Better Software works within SOC 2 and HIPAA compliance requirements. The team also maintains an open-source web starter built on Flask and React, reflecting the same engineering patterns used in client work. The combination of a capped engagement roster and embedded senior staff is intended to keep delivery fast while avoiding the shortcuts that create long-term technical debt.
