We know what it's like to be a founder

We know what it means to reach profitability, lead a growing team, and navigate the next stage of expansion — scaling further without losing culture, product focus, or control.

We acquire majority stakes in profitable AI-native SaaS companies and help founders scale faster by combining the trust of a larger group with the freedom to keep leading. No forced integration. No bureaucracy. Just the tools, peers, and capital to compound what you’ve already built
