Three ways to partner
Consulting

Strategy, audits, and a modernization roadmap for your existing site or portal.

Build with us

We design, build, and ship the software — then hand it off or keep it running.

Acquire & operate

For owners looking to exit or partner, we acquire and modernize the business itself.

What we do

Consulting, custom software, and acquisition — built around your customers.

01

Modernization Advisory

Your existing site or customer portal is working — but it's showing its age. We audit what you have, quantify the risk and lost revenue, and lay out a pragmatic roadmap to modernize without disrupting the customers you've spent years earning.

Fractional CTO for Small Business

Most small businesses don't need a full-time CTO — they need a trusted technical partner. We sit alongside owners and operators to set technology strategy, vet vendors, oversee builds, and make sure the software actually moves the business forward.

Founder's statement

Eric Kern

CEO, Lincoln Consulting · CEO, ZerothGuard · CTO, Anything vs. Anything · CTO, Neo-Tech

I've been writing code since I was 13 — long before titles like CTO or Distinguished Engineer meant anything to me. Back then, I was simply fascinated by how a few lines of code could bring an idea to life. That same energy still drives me today.

As CEO of Lincoln Consulting, and CTO of both Anything vs. Anything and Neo-Tech, I focus on delivering engineering-led innovation — building agentic AI systems, cloud platforms, and secure software that turn ambitious ideas into production reality.

Three decades in, with 125+ patents and a career spanning Distinguished Engineer roles and pioneering work in accessible, ethical AI, my mission is simple: use technology to expand what people — and organizations — are capable of.
