Partners

For venture studios and accelerators.

You hold Dealflow. What your portfolio needs is a build team no single company can justify hiring — strategy, brand and product, supplied per venture and priced per venture.

The situation

Twelve companies, one shared bottleneck.

Every cohort has the same shape: a founder with a domain, a deck, and no way to get to a credible product before the next raise. Hiring a studio team in-house is a fixed cost against variable dealflow.

We plug in per venture, at the stage where it is actually useful, and leave when it is done. No portfolio-wide retainer, no seat you have to keep warm.

What we supply

The whole studio, one venture at a time.

01Cohort diagnosisStuck-to-Scale read across the portfolio so you know which companies are actually where they claim.
02Thesis and positioningThe strategy work most pre-seed teams skip and later pay for.
03Brand and interfaceA venture that looks fundable before it needs to be.
04Product buildMVP through production, AI-native where it is justified.
05Demo-day readinessNarrative, deck and live product, aligned for once.
06Founder coaching on craftSo the team keeps the standard after we leave.
How it runs

Per venture, per stage.

01Per-venture scopeNo portfolio retainer, no minimum commitment.
02Cohort rateVolume pricing when several ventures run in the same window.
03Equity-for-buildAvailable where the studio and the founder both prefer it.
04Free cohort auditThe first read costs nothing, and sometimes the answer is that nobody is ready.
The guarantees

What we will not do.

We do not take founder-side positions that conflict with yours, and we do not approach your portfolio companies outside the programme.

We will also tell you when a venture should not receive build spend. That is the point of the read, and it has saved partners more money than the engagements have cost.

Rarely. Most cohorts have two or three ventures where a build engagement is the right spend; we say which.

Yes, and the calendar is fixed to yours. Fixed scope, fixed end date is how we work anyway.

Only where you and the founder want that structure. Fee-based is the default here.

The venture does, in full — files, source and documentation. Nothing is held as leverage.

White-label

Start with a free cohort read.

We will tell you which ventures are where they claim to be — and which should not be spending on a build yet.
