Some are companies WMAD co-founds and holds equity in, as founding technology partner. Some are products WMAD builds and owns outright. All of them are separately staffed from our client services, with engagements ring-fenced accordingly.
A services business is paid for its time. A venture-builder is paid for its judgement, because it’s the one deciding whether the underlying idea is worth building at all — and then living with that decision as an owner, not a contractor who moves on to the next invoice once the work is delivered.
We take on ventures selectively, and only where the problem is genuinely hard enough to need a founding technology partner rather than an outsourced build: a regulated domain, a data architecture problem nobody else has solved cleanly, or a market where the software has to be right the first time because there’s no room to patch it later in production. MintCarb, our carbon-intelligence venture, and VirgoOS, the governed AI operating system we own and run, are the current proof of what that standard looks like in practice.
Venture 01AI-native carbon intelligence — measure, comply, verify and report across jurisdictions from one platform.
Venture 02The governed intelligence operating system: AI your business can stand behind, with signed proof on every answer.
The next one is being scoped.
If you're building something in a regulated or genuinely hard technical space and need a founding technology partner, not a vendor — talk to us.
