The Opportunity

A generational opportunity for small businesses to reinvent their playbook

Enterprise-Grade Tech for Small Businesses
AI becomes your in-house programmer, empowering small businesses with the sophisticated, scalable technology and resources once reserved for large enterprises.
Same team, bigger impact
Big companies deploy AI primarily to trim jobs. Small businesses, however, use AI as a launchpad for innovation and speed, sparking creative solutions that drive real growth.
Culture as the Ultimate Edge
When technology levels the playing field, strong, genuine relationships become the advantage. Small teams build trust and loyalty far faster than large, layered organizations.

It is difficult to think of a major industry that AI will not transform. There are surprisingly clear paths for AI to make a big difference in every industry.

And generational opportunity for investors in small businesses redefining their industries

SMBs have a head start...

Established cash flow, proven business models, and deep customer relationships eliminate the risks of unproven startups

...and a new opportunity to outpace

Small teams adapt and evolve faster than large organizations. With fewer layers and closer connections, transformation happens naturally rather than through forced corporate initiatives
