An investor puts in money. A shop puts in hands. We put in money and the AI infrastructure that runs the company from day one, already in production elsewhere. We take equity because we build part of what makes it worth something.
Today we invest our own balance sheet, not other people's money. That means fast decisions, no committee, and no fund clock dictating when we enter or exit.
The same agent infrastructure that runs real companies today, not a prototype. The company starts with operations instead of hiring them, on its own cloud and its own data.
We build it and then we run it: infrastructure, deployments, security and the agents doing the daily work. The founder keeps the business, not the maintenance.
We don't take control or a board seat: the company is run by whoever founded it. We don't replace a fund, and we don't manage other people's money. And we're not an agency taking shares instead of a fee: if we don't believe in the business, we simply charge for the work, which is what the rest of the house is for.
Early, but with something real: revenue, a paid pilot, or a short, clear path to the first one. We don't fund decks.
Operating full time and owning the customer relationship. We bring the machine; the business and its people are theirs.
A business where the brain changes the outcome, not where it just decorates. If AI isn't the difference, we'd rather tell you on the first call.
Every deal is agreed separately: equity only, or equity plus a reduced fee covering infrastructure. The percentage, the cheque and the milestones are discussed with you, not published on a page. Today we invest our own capital; a vehicle with outside investors will come later.
And the exit is defined from the start: if the company wants to continue without us, there is a priced path to take its platform along. We'd rather the door exists than have anyone feel locked in.
