Agentic AI ventures.
Built with founders.

Hands-on partners to founders building at the intersection of AI, markets infrastructure, and finance.

NYC-anchored. Markets-coded. Technical depth and growth as a product capability. We ship code and write the playbook alongside founders, not as advisors.

WHAT WE DO

Hands-on partnership for the agentic AI era.

01 · AGENTIC AI

Build agentic products

Technical and product partnership for founders building agentic systems. Architecture, deployment, frontier model integration. We've shipped agentic pipelines into production and contributed to frontier-model training work.

02 · MARKETS & INFRA

Markets, infra & finance

Our home turf. Fintech, prediction markets, capital markets infrastructure, agentic finance. We're building Veynor — agentic infrastructure for prediction markets — ourselves. When we say we've done it, we mean it.

03 · GROWTH

Growth & distribution

GTM strategy and execution for AI-native startups. The playbook and the network: Pulse newsletter to ~800 NYC fintech and AI operators, NYC Founders & Operators community, curated audience that converts. Distribution as a product capability.

04 · ACCESS

Ecosystem access

Wharton. BCG. Ex-Coinbase. Ex-Treasury. NYC's fintech-AI rooms, European LP networks, and the Philadelphia operator bench. Strategic access when you need it.
