About CTO Input
CTO Input helps CEOs and boards make smart technology decisions. We saw organizations struggling with unclear strategies, rising risks, and fragmented systems due to a lack of leadership, not talent. So, we provide the clarity, alignment, and execution they need. Today, we're trusted advisors and fractional CTOs, CIOs, and CISOs, helping organizations lead with confidence, move faster, and turn technology into a strategic advantage.
Our Mission
We help ambitious business leaders turn technology from a source of stress into a driver of growth. By offering fractional executive leadership and technology advisory services, we give our clients tailored strategies, executive-level insight, and a clear path forward, without the complexity, confusion, or cost of hiring a full-time executive. Our mission is simple: make technology leadership accessible, impactful, and aligned with your business goals.
Our Vision
We envision a world where growing companies no longer feel stuck or left behind because of their technology. Every business should have access to the same level of strategic guidance and operational clarity as the largest enterprises, without compromise. Our goal is to build a future where technology empowers, simplifies, and accelerates business, rather than slowing it down.
Our Story
Tyson Martin
Founder / CEO
CTO Input was founded by Tyson Martin, a seasoned technology executive (CISO, CIO, & CTO). Tyson repeatedly observed a critical gap in hundreds of organizations: business leaders were forced to make complex, high-stakes technology and cybersecurity decisions without the necessary support.
Through his years in executive roles, working with CEOs, COOs, CFOs, and boards in both Fortune 100 companies, Tyson noticed a common challenge. These leaders wanted to accelerate growth, enhance efficiency, and strengthen security, yet technology often felt like a barrier rather than an enabler.
Tyson launched CTO Input with a clear vision: organizations shouldn't have to navigate technology challenges alone or resort to over hiring. They deserve a reliable technology partner, an individual who approaches challenges with an executive mindset, takes ownership, and delivers tangible results. This partner listens intently, communicates clearly, and prioritizes outcomes over technical jargon.
Today, CTO Input supports founders, executives, and boards that are aiming for confident, scalable growth. We function as your fractional CTO, CIO, or CISO, ensuring your technology aligns with your business strategy, simplifying complexities, bridging security gaps, and providing clear leadership. We don't just offer advice; we provide a comprehensive roadmap, executive guidance, and the momentum needed to achieve your goals. With the right expert by your side, technology transforms from a source of stress into a powerful strategic advantage.
