Those conversations help us finalise the ICP to build, sell, and price for mid-market outcomes.
40+ in-person ICP research meetings conducted alongside the Photon Legal founder.
₹50K→ $100K ACV ICP change drove the ACV jump - fewer customers, larger deal sizes.

We’re co-building Outcome-as-a-Service companies - delivery-led, product-powered. Companies own outcomes while Product creates leverage to reach 80% gross and 20% net margins.
Traditional Agency
Scales by hiring more people -output grows linearly with headcount. Operations stay heavy, leaving limited leverage and ~5-10% net margins.
AI-First Agency
AI automates a large chunk of work, including ops and delivery, creating real operating leverage. Fewer people, better output - enabling ~20% net margins.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answering some FAQs here, but we are always open to talking to B2B founders. Please feel free to reach out!
In 2026, we’re backing a new class of companies: Outcome-as-a-Service. The days of manpower-heavy agencies are ending. With AI as leverage, what once required 1,000 people can now be achieved by 20. These are not service shops; they’re AI-first agencies — collapsing the gap between services and products, delivering outcomes directly, and building proprietary IP along the way.
We’re backing six AI-first agencies that deliver outcomes directly.
- AI Tooling Agency → Automates workflows and builds custom AI systems as internal IP.
- AI Finance Agency → Streamlines bookkeeping, FP&A, compliance, and tax with AI.
- AI Hiring Agency → Sources, screens, and assesses top talent 70% faster.
- AI Outbound Agency → Personalizes and automates outbound sales at scale.
- AI Marketing Agency → Runs full-stack marketing optimized by AI.
- AI Engineering Services Agency → Delivers end-to-end AI product development.
Yes. We fund through Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs), where we invest alongside our global network of investors, founders, and operators. We lead these SPVs to back the startups we co-build, bringing both capital and context. Because we are deeply involved day-to-day, we make high-conviction bets($100K - $1M), and we also do follow-on funding for companies that show strong traction.
- B2C, D2C, or B2B2C. We don’t specialise in either of them.
- You serve SMBs, and your ACV is less than $5,000. We don't specialised in PLG either.
- You are moonlighting on an idea or pre-revenue.
- You are selling from India to India. One of our key value-adds is GTM to the USA.
Since we only pick 4-5 startups a year, we have to be super picky. If there is sufficient interest on both sides, we take 3 months and do a pilot with you so that we can both make a confident decision. We don't have any structured selection process, and we don’t run cohorts like traditional accelerators, so you can reach out to us anytime during the year.
