Services

Our services.

Ten disciplines across four divisions. Take one, take all of them, or take one and keep your existing providers for the rest. There is no bundling requirement and no penalty for using us selectively.

01. Consulting & Capital

Strategy, and the capital behind it.

Commercial advisory for technology and AI businesses, and direct investment where a company fits our mandate. We are explicit about which hat we are wearing in any given conversation.

Consulting

Commercial strategy

Positioning, pricing, go-to-market sequencing and the operating model required to support it. Written as a plan with owners and dates, not a deck.

4 to 8 weeksFixed fee
Consulting

U.S. market entry

For companies founded elsewhere: entity structure, banking, employer registrations, first hires, and the commercial groundwork to be credible here.

6 to 12 weeksFixed fee
Consulting

Fundraising readiness

Equity story, model, data room discipline, and rehearsal of the questions investors will actually ask. Preparation, not placement.

6 to 10 weeksFixed fee
Capital

Private investment

Direct minority positions in technology and AI companies, typically alongside a lead investor. Long hold periods and no pressure for a near-term exit.

Case by caseBy mandate
Capital

Growth capital

Capital for companies with revenue and a clear use of proceeds: expansion, hiring, or a specific commercial push.

Operating support post-investment

Where we invest, our other divisions are available at cost to the businesses we back. Useful, and not conditional.

OngoingAt cost
02. Corporate Services

The infrastructure that lets you hire and operate.

Immigration, accounting, administration and people. Entirely load-bearing, and the most common reason a growth plan slips.

Immigration

Work visa and status support

Case strategy, document preparation, timeline management and employer-side compliance for the visa categories technology companies actually use.

Per caseLicensed counsel
Immigration

Workforce planning and compliance

Mapping a hiring plan against immigration reality before offers go out, plus ongoing employer record-keeping obligations.

OngoingRetainer
Accounting

Bookkeeping and month-end close

Transaction processing, reconciliations, and a close calendar that produces numbers you can act on rather than numbers that arrive in week five.

MonthlyRetainer
Accounting

Management reporting

A short set of measures leadership will actually use, plus investor reporting packs and board financials.

MonthlyRetainer
Administration

Entity and corporate administration

Registrations, filings, registered agent coordination, contract administration and the corporate housekeeping that becomes a diligence problem if neglected.

OngoingRetainer
People

HR and the people function

Recruitment support, onboarding, employment policy, payroll and benefits coordination, and performance frameworks that fit the company's size.

OngoingRetainer
03. Growth & Communications

How the company is understood.

Marketing, public relations and communications, run as one function. Positioning that stays consistent whether it appears in a press release, a job advert or a sales call.

Marketing

Positioning and messaging

What the company is, for whom, and why it is different, expressed once and expressed well, so everything downstream stays consistent.

3 to 6 weeksFixed fee
Marketing

Demand generation

Channel strategy, content, campaigns and the measurement to tell which of it is working. Built to be handed to an internal hire later.

OngoingRetainer
Public relations

Media relations and announcements

Funding rounds, launches and milestones: narrative, materials, journalist relationships and the timing to give a story a chance.

Per campaignProject or retainer
Public relations

Executive and founder profile

Thought leadership, speaking, and building a credible public voice without manufacturing one.

OngoingRetainer
Communications

Internal communications

All-hands structure, change and restructuring messaging, and keeping a distributed team informed rather than merely emailed.

OngoingRetainer
Communications

Crisis and issues management

Preparation before you need it, and a rehearsed response when you do, coordinated with our security division where an incident is technical.

On callRetainer
04. Technology & Security

Building it, and protecting it.

Software consulting and delivery alongside cyber and corporate security. Kept in one division because the questions overlap more than most companies expect.

Software

Technical advisory

Architecture review, build-versus-buy, technical diligence, and an honest read on whether a roadmap is achievable with the team you have.

2 to 6 weeksFixed fee
Software

Delivery and engineering

Embedded engineering for defined scopes: internal tooling, integrations, data platform work, or shipping a product increment on a deadline.

Per projectFixed fee or T&M
Software

AI implementation

Identifying where machine learning helps, building it, and saying plainly where it does not.

Per projectFixed fee
Cyber security

Assessment and remediation

Posture review, penetration testing coordination, and a prioritized remediation plan rather than a 200-page report nobody reads.

3 to 6 weeksFixed fee
Cyber security

Compliance readiness

Preparing for the security questionnaires and framework audits enterprise customers will put in front of you, before they do.

8 to 16 weeksFixed fee
Corporate security

People, premises and travel

Executive protection planning, office and access security, travel risk assessment, and incident response for physical threats.

OngoingRetainer

Durations and fee structures shown are typical rather than guaranteed, and are agreed in writing before any work begins. We quote fixed fees wherever scope permits. Where it does not, we agree a capped estimate.

05. Terms

How we contract.

A company this broad has to be unusually clear about qualification and conflict. These terms apply to every engagement without exception.

Licensed work is done by licensed people. Immigration matters requiring legal advice are handled by practicing attorneys. Accounting work requiring a licensed opinion is handled by CPAs. We will tell you which of our people hold which credentials, and where we are using a licensed partner firm rather than acting ourselves.

Conflicts are checked and disclosed before you sign. We both advise and invest, and we may serve companies that compete. Where our interests could touch yours, you hear about it in writing first, and we will decline one side rather than manage a conflict we cannot cleanly resolve.

Scope, fee and deliverables are agreed in writing. Client information stays confidential indefinitely and is returned or destroyed on request at the close of an engagement. Retainers are terminable with thirty days' notice, and we will support an orderly handover to whoever comes next.

Not sure which of these you need?

Most people are not, and the diagnostic exists for exactly that reason. Describe the situation and we will tell you what we think the work is, including if the answer is that you do not need us.
