II · Technology

An engine room,not an invoice.

Half of every investment we make is engineering. The machinery every company runs on is built, secured and looked after by people who have done it before, so your engineers can spend year one on the research.

Other investors tell you to hire an agency. We send our own engineers. There is no hourly rate, and they stay as long as you need them.

The engine room · Six stations

Everything underneathyour product.

01 · Cloud

Ready before you need it.

We set up your cloud accounts, environments and build pipeline, review them with your engineers, and watch the bill every month.

Instead ofA founder reading invoices at midnight.

02 · Security

Secure from the first commit.

Identity, devices, secrets and access done properly from day one, and a security review before your first enterprise customer asks for one.

Instead ofThe questionnaire that stalls a contract.

03 · Data & AI

The unglamorous half of a model.

Help with the data pipelines and the evaluation, and with running the model where the customer is rather than wherever the hardware happens to be.

Instead ofA demo that never becomes a product.

04 · Tools

A whole company, in a week.

Domain, mail, workspace, accounting software, contracts and CRM, set up in your first week and owned by you.

Instead ofA month of sign-ups and settings.

05 · Hiring

Your first hire, made well.

Help writing the role, a second opinion in the technical interview, and introductions to people who have shipped this kind of thing before.

Instead ofA first hire made in a hurry.

06 · Audit

Procurement, already answered.

The groundwork for the certifications large customers ask for. Policies, controls and evidence kept as you go, not assembled in a panic.

Instead ofSix weeks lost to a procurement team.

We build it.You own it.

Every account, every key and every line of configuration belongs to your company from the first day. If we ever part ways, nothing has to be handed back.

Usual

A list of approved vendors.

You find them, you brief them, you pay them, and you manage them.

Ours

An engineer at your stand-up.

Someone who already knows your stack and is paid for by the investment, working in your repositories on your timeline.
