We map where adoption actually comes from using OSINT-informed research, attribution thinking, and structured narrative work - then translate it into roadmaps founders and investors can act on.

FAQ

01

Who do we work with?

Founders, operators, and teams building in AI-native, frontier, or high-stakes categories. We're selective on fit — the engagements that work best are the ones where strategy, creative, and systems all need to move together.

02

How are engagements structured?

Three models: advisory (specific question, defined sprint), embedded (3–6 month integrated build), and operating partner (long arc, sometimes including equity). Each one is scoped to the company and the moment.

03

What if i don't have a technical team?

Most of our clients don't. We handle the technical layer end-to-end — infrastructure, AI systems, integrations — and train your team to run what we build. Technical fluency on your side is welcome, not required.

04

How do you measure success?

Against the goals defined at the start of the engagement — usually a mix of system performance, market traction, and team capability. We share progress openly. If something isn't working, we'd rather rebuild it than defend it.

04

What if it doesn't work?

We aim for measurable impact and we'd rather find that out early than late. If an engagement isn't producing what we both expected, we restructure or — at the right project stage - refund.
