01Markets infrastructure
Tide, internal trading desk
A unified workstation for our public-market book: real-time data, custom analytics, scenario tools, and execution dashboards. Built for humans who press the button themselves.
Labs
We still build the software. Quietly, ourselves.
A small in-house engineering team that ships trading systems, market-data pipelines, research tooling, and the occasional fintech experiment. Some products stay internal. Some ship to partners. All keep us honest with founders.
02Research / Markets
Drift, market research
A screening system that reads filings, follows earnings calls, and surfaces the ten things we should think about today instead of the ten thousand we couldn't.
03Founder tools
Kelp, portfolio ops for founders
Lightweight reporting and intelligence for the companies we back. Founders share what they want, when they want; we get signal without the spreadsheet death-march.
04R&D
Salt, fintech experiments
A rotating sandbox of half-built ideas in payments, settlement, and on-chain finance. Some become products. Some become lessons. All of them ship something.
Engagements
How we work with partners.
We are a small shop by choice. We take a handful of builds a year, with people we want to work with.
Greenfield product
From a blank repo to a shipped v1, ideally in 4–10 weeks. Best when there's a sharp problem and someone on your side who'll own it after we leave.
Embedded build
We sit inside your team for 4–12 weeks, ship a hard piece (trading desk, research tooling, data plumbing) and hand it over with docs.
Architecture review
A short, honest read on a system you're scaling, with a written plan you can act on. One week.
