For founders and in-house engineering teams
Build. Fix. Coach.
We start with the business value you need, whether that’s a product customers will pay for, faster onboarding, or fewer failed releases. We build MVPs and AI agents, fix what slows delivery, and coach your engineers to own the next release.
Which events in today’s news matter to our portfolio?
- What we build
- An AI news feed matches events to portfolio holdings. Each alert explains the connection and links to the source.
- Why it matters
- Analysts can see which holdings need a closer look without reading every headline.
- How we test it
- Pilot it alongside the team’s current feed. Compare relevant events caught and time lost to false alarms, then track how many teams subscribe.

02 / Services
Where can we help?
Build
Bring a workflow, product or feature to life.
We connect AI workflows and agents to your data and tools. For a new product, we build an MVP that customers can try. For an existing product, we ship the next feature and check how people use it.
Fix
Make releases reliable and easier to repeat.
We follow a change from ticket to production to see where it waits or fails. Then we fix the cause, whether that means simplifying reviews, automating deployments or repairing unreliable infrastructure.
Coach
Give your engineers the skills to own the work.
Your engineers practise on their own systems. We pair on design decisions, test an agent against real examples and rehearse a rollback. Your team leads the next release with a runbook it helped write.
03 / Who we help
For teams with more to ship than they can deliver.
We work with startup founders testing a product and with leaders whose in-house engineers keep the business running. You might be building your first customer portal, keeping an unreliable service online, or deciding where AI belongs in your product.
When to bring us in
- Development takes too long, and release dates keep slipping.
- Unreliable systems leave people fixing failures or doing the work by hand.
- You have a product idea, but getting a first version to customers takes months.
- You want to use AI but need help choosing a use case and testing whether it works.
- Your engineers depend on one senior person to make decisions or ship changes.
04 / How we work
From assessment to ownership.
Start with a product to build, a delivery problem to fix or a skill your engineers want to learn. Together we agree on what success looks like and how your team will take ownership.
- 01
Assess
We agree on one area to review for free. Together we identify what’s holding you back and where a change would help.
- 02
Scope
We agree on a fixed scope, fixed price and clear acceptance criteria before deciding whether to proceed.
- 03
Implement
We build alongside your engineers. Pairing and code reviews give them practice making the decisions they’ll own later.
- 04
Your team leads
Your engineers run the next release with us alongside them. We review the code and runbook together, then agree on next steps and where further support would help.
Free engineering assessment
What would you like to build, fix or learn?
Bring an AI workflow or product idea, a recurring delivery problem, or a task your engineers want to handle independently. Together we’ll choose one example for the free review.
You’ll get a short written finding and a next step your team can try. If you want help implementing it, we’ll agree on the scope, price and acceptance criteria before paid work starts.
