Own the go-to-market with me.

I am the technical co-founder. I am looking for a complementary partner who can own design-partner relationships, pilot conversion, and institutional sales. You have lived inside quant funds, exchanges, or infra procurement. Meaningful equity, real ownership of revenue and go-to-market, founding-team trajectory.

  • Deep network in quant, HFT, exchange, or RegTech buying centres
  • Comfort selling infrastructure via proof, not pitch decks
  • Wants to build a business customers can verify, not narrate
Pre-seed investors · operator-angels & funds

Fund the proof infrastructure thesis.

Operator-angels from quant, HFT, or low-latency infra. Pre-seed and seed funds in dev infrastructure, fintech infra, or compliance tooling. Strategics adjacent to exchanges, trading-tech vendors, and RegTech. Investor brief available under NDA.

  • Wedge: deterministic replay + hash-verified evidence bundles for market systems
  • Pilot motion: 4–6 week paid engagements with forwardable artifacts
  • Open-core: public harness for inspection, enterprise orchestration for buyers
