Investors & Partners
We're building a portfolio of AI ventures — not selling hours
Each product below started as an internal system, proved itself on real operations, and then became a company or a standalone venture. If you invest in applied AI, partner with founders, or want to build the next one together — let's talk.

The ventures we are building
Companies solving problems unglamorous enough to have been left alone and large enough to be worth taking. Each one has its own page with the problem, the product, and the model.
Venture 01 · Founder
Neuron Expert
Home-service businesses live and die by the phone, and the person best placed to answer it is on a roof or under a sink. Neuron answers instead — and charges only when a job is completed.
- →A business number answered by an AI receptionist around the clock
- →The call ends as a booked job, not a message to call back
- →A CRM for jobs, technicians, and routes behind it
- →Local service pages that bring in the next call
- Pricing
- Per completed job — first ones free
- Setup
- Live in an afternoon
- Languages
- English · Spanish · Russian
Venture 02 · Founder
Friends.energy
The Russian-speaking diaspora in the US organises itself in scattered chats. Friends.energy turns that into a city-by-city platform where jobs, housing, services, and events are searchable — and businesses can be found.
- →Listings by city: jobs, housing, services, cars
- →Local events and news, per city rather than per country
- →A business directory that is moderated, not open-post
- →City Telegram channels as the distribution layer
- Coverage
- Miami · New York · LA · SF · Chicago
- Audience
- Russian-speaking communities in the US
- Distribution
- Web plus per-city Telegram channels
Venture 03 · Founder
FindSupport.ai
People who need a therapist do not fail at searching — they fail at the first message. FindSupport takes a description of the situation instead of a filter query, and carries the conversation to the specialist itself.
- →Describe the situation in plain words, not filters
- →Matching to specialists who fit that situation
- →The first message is sent through the platform
- →Free peer support from people who have been there
- Directory
- 2,748 therapist profiles · 147 US cities
- Revenue moment
- Access to contact, not to the listing
- Peer support
- Free for the person seeking help
Venture 04 · Founder
Atlas Trader
Retail trading tools are built to make you trade. Atlas is built to tell you when not to — it reads market structure across 26 CME futures, ranks what it finds, and answers WAIT more often than anything else.
- →Market structure computed from 1-minute to weekly
- →26 futures scored 0–100 — and WAIT is a real answer
- →Geopolitical event risk priced off prediction markets
- →Every rule backtested in CI before it goes live
- Coverage
- 26 CME futures · 1-minute to weekly
- Cadence
- 30-second marks · 5-minute rescan
- Validation
- 2-year sweeps, in- and out-of-sample
Case studies
Systems built and put into production, with the numbers they moved and the stack behind each one — voice agents answering for service businesses, multi-agent outreach, event operations, and market intelligence. Mostly client work; two are our own products.

AI Voice Dispatch for HVAC Company
Regional HVAC Services Provider · 6 weeks
A growing HVAC company was losing 35% of inbound calls outside business hours. Their 3-person dispatch team couldn't handle peak season volume, leading to missed bookings and frustrated customers across English and Spanish-speaking markets.

Outreach & Lead GenB2B Technology
AI-Powered B2B Lead Generation Engine
SaaS Growth Agency · 4 weeks
The agency relied on 5 SDRs doing manual prospecting — researching companies, writing emails, and following up. Output was inconsistent, personalization was shallow, and the cost per qualified lead kept climbing.

Metals Market Intelligence System
Quantitative Trading Firm · 12 weeks
Traditional technical analysis missed structural regime changes in metals markets. The firm needed a system that could integrate macroeconomic, behavioral, and structural signals into actionable trading intelligence — not just dashboards.

AI Operations Assistant for Digital Agency
Full-Service Digital Agency · 5 weeks
A 40-person agency was drowning in operational overhead — weekly reporting took 15 hours, task routing was manual, client updates were inconsistent, and the team spent more time on admin than creative work.

FindSupport.ai — own product · Ongoing
Finding a therapist was never the hard part — directories have solved that for years. People stall at the next step: writing to a stranger about the worst thing in their life. Every platform in the category competes on the size of its list, which is the one thing that was never the bottleneck.

The systems underneath
The engines the ventures and client work are built on — each with its own write-up: what it does, how it is put together, and what it changed.
Why Work With Me
