Our focus
Surface area of AI

The studio
model.

We are builders and operators at heart. Every engagement is hands-on. We're in the product, in the codebase, in the room where decisions get made.

01 —
Co-build the product

We embed in your team and build the thing. You stay in charge of the vision; we make sure it ships — from first prototype to production-ready product.

Co-founding Full-stack 0→1
02 —
Own your distribution

We design growth into the product architecture. PLG loops, content flywheels, and acquisition channels — built in from the start, not bolted on after.

Leverage our network

10 years of operator relationships, compressed into the intros that matter most for your stage — investors, co-founders, and first customers.

Investors Intros Operators

How we
run.

We operate like a small, high-trust founding team — not a committee. Speed, taste, and conviction over process.

01
Signal
We identify what just became possible that nobody's built yet — capability edges, underserved markets, ideas whose time has come.
Always on
02
Prototype
We build before we pitch. Real validation over slide decks — a working product in front of real people, before a dollar is raised.
Active
03
Team
We match thesis to the people who can actually win the market. Domain depth, distribution access, and the drive to see it through.
Ongoing
04
Build
Embedded, fast, and focused until something real exists. Weekly sprints, shared slack, code reviews. We're in the trench, not on a board.
Per venture
05
Launch
We help you go to market, raise the right capital, and stand on your own — with the narrative, intros, and momentum to do it with conviction.
Milestone

Current
bets.

What we
believe.

We have a point of view. A studio without conviction is just a factory. These are ours.

"AI is not a feature. It's a new computing platform — and most companies are still treating it like a plugin."

We are in
The compound era of AI.
Models improve. Costs fall.
Winners are building now.

AI is a new computing platform, not a feature. Companies built natively on AI will displace those that bolt it on.

Speed of iteration is the moat. The studios and founders that can close the loop fastest will compound ahead of everyone else.

Distribution beats technology. Brilliant AI products fail every day because nobody builds the motion to get them in front of the right people.

The frontier moves every 6 months. Yesterday's demo is today's commodity. We stay close to capability edges to stay ahead of the market.

Small teams with taste win. Over-staffing kills velocity. We keep ventures lean until product-market fit is undeniable.

The people
behind the bets.

Small by design. We'd rather be the most useful studio in the room than the biggest.

LT
Lawrence Tan
General Partner

The builder and operator for a decade. Brings the thesis, the taste, and the GTM instinct. Has shipped 0→1 products across consumer and B2B — and knows which mistakes aren't worth repeating.

AI
Luna
AI CEO

The AI CEO that co-runs the company with Lawrence. Built to ship from scratch. The ultimate 24/7 operator who never takes a coffee break, complains about meetings, or experiences burnout. =)

A curated bench of operators who've been in the trenches — ex-founders, growth leads, ML researchers, and domain experts plugged into each venture.
