The model

One exit. Two payouts.

When one of our companies is sold, you can be paid twice. Once through the stake the studio holds in that company, which you share in as an owner of the studio. And once through your own direct investment in that company, if you took the early look and chose to put money in.

And your studio stake does not go away afterward, because the studio is still building.


The six stages

Each stage ends at a decision, not a deadline.

StageWhat happensWhat has to be true to continue
IdeationWe select an idea against a fixed scorecard.It scores high enough on every test.
ValidationWe talk to real buyers and test the pricing.Enough buyers say yes, in writing.
TestWe put something working in front of those buyers.They use it, and they commit to pay for it.
CreationWe build the real product.A customer pays for it.
LaunchWe sell it and hire the operating team.Revenue reaches a set monthly level.
GrowthWe scale the company toward the acquirers our analysis identified.Growth is funding itself, and the path to profitability is clear.

A company that cannot clear its stage is stopped. Stopping early is cheap. Stopping late is what ruins returns.

Capital efficiency

Why this is faster, cheaper, and better.

A normal startup rebuilds everything from scratch: the finance function, the legal setup, the design system, the hiring, the sales process. Every company pays for it again. Our companies share all of it, built once and reused, so each one needs less money to reach the same point and our investors are diluted less along the way.

AI does more than cut cost. We examine far more ideas and are far more selective about the few we pursue. Those are pressure-tested from more directions than a small team could manage alone, so flaws surface early instead of after launch, and the time from decision to launch compresses.
