We help AI-era portfolio companies find Resonance

Resonance = where AI ambition and operating reality align.

Most companies don't lack AI strategy or technology. They lack the operating model underneath.

We embed as interim operating leadership with real AI acumen, build the AI-native operating model and the commercial engine, then hire our own successor and step out clean. The value stays in the company, not in a retainer.

Where AI ambition and operating reality align.

THE GAP
THE GAP

Strong teams and real technology get backed. The business underneath doesn't get build.

A strategy deck and a few pilots aren't a business. The operating muscle that turns the thesis into something that compounds, the operating model, the commercial engine, the right first hires, often isn't there yet. That gap is where value is lost. Resonance closes it, and is built to leave once it's closed.

Who we work with

For venture investors

For venture investors

You've funded a strong founder. Post-funding, the gap no one talks about opens up: no operating model, no path from prototype to profit, wrong first hires burning months off the runway, and the next round starts to slip.

We embed as the senior operator a 12-person company can't yet justify hiring, for 3 to 6 months. We stand up the AI-native operating model and the commercial engine that turns the prototype into recurring revenue, then hire the replacement and step out clean.

Your portfolio companies clear the hardest phase of growth, and the next round arrives three months sooner.

For Private Equity

For Private Equity

The portfolio doesn't lack an AI strategy, it lacks an AI operating model. A strategy deck, a few pilots that never touch the P&L, and nothing turning any of it into margin. By the time it reaches a board pack, the value-creation plan has slipped a quarter and the multiple is compressing.

We embed as interim operating leadership — Chief Transformation Officer or COO, depending on the asset — for 6 to 12 months.
We install the AI operating model, turn the pilots into a capability that moves EBITDA, and install the permanent C-suite before we leave.

EBITDA compounds earlier in the hold, and the AI story is one you can stand behind in an IC and at exit.
