Sectors

Five sectors under one thesis.

We don't pick sectors because they're hot. We pick them because we have conviction in how AI is reshaping them — and where the next decade of products will be built.

Sector 01 / 05

AI Applications

Consumer and prosumer tools where AI does the heavy lifting in the background. Voice interfaces that actually work, vision systems that handle real edge cases, productivity tools that don't just summarize your inbox but actually move things forward.

We're skeptical of AI products where the AI is the marketing layer on top of a regular product. The intelligence has to be load-bearing — the product should stop working if you remove the model.

  • Voice-first productivity and capture tools
  • Vision systems for niche professional use cases
  • AI-native creative tooling
  • Workflow automation for non-technical teams
  • Sector 02 / 05

    EdTech

    The schools with the largest class sizes are also the ones with the most to gain from AI. We're building tutoring and content tools for classrooms that need to serve 25–40+ students at once — plus a dedicated line of work on early-childhood safety and engagement: how do you make screens for kids and toddlers meaningfully more educational, less addictive by design, and safer for young brains?

    Our EdTech work is focused on North America and Europe — the markets where budgets, institutional buyers, and regulatory frameworks make AI-native tools an active buying decision rather than a philanthropy conversation.

  • Adaptive tutoring for K-12
  • Early-childhood: safer, higher-engagement learning for ages 2–7
  • Teacher aids: lesson planning, grading, content
  • Language learning for non-English-first learners
  • Workforce reskilling for displaced workers
  • Sector 03 / 05

    Smart Hardware

    Physical devices with embedded intelligence. The thesis is that the next decade of AI products won't be chat windows — they'll be sensors, edge inference, and the supply chain to ship them at scale.

    We work mostly with manufacturers in Shenzhen, Dongguan, and Suzhou. We prototype fast, run small pilot batches, and only commit to scale runs after we've seen real usage data. Most of our hardware bets spend 6-12 months in prototype before they see a single shipping box.

  • Edge AI devices for consumer use
  • Industrial IoT with on-device inference
  • Sensor packages for vertical-specific applications
  • Smart home and ambient computing
  • Sector 04 / 05

    Lifestyle & Wellness

    Consumer products for the home, kitchen, body, and everyday — combined with the wearable and personal-health line we used to run as a separate category. We ship things that solve a small problem well, and where the intelligence layer helps (recognition, prediction, adaptive coaching) we lean into it. Where AI doesn't help, we don't fake it.

    On the wellness side we're careful. Anything that makes clinical claims has to clear a regulatory pathway before it ships. We're not building diagnostic devices — we build products that work alongside healthcare providers, not in place of them. Distribution across the whole category is selective DTC and a small set of retail partners. We're not trying to win Amazon. We're trying to build products that people buy once and tell two friends about.

  • Wearables with adaptive coaching
  • Sleep, recovery, and stress monitoring
  • Personal-health hardware for home use
  • Smart home devices that respect privacy
  • Kitchen, cooking, travel, and everyday tools
  • Sector 05 / 05

    Algorithmic Trading

    Systematic strategies, market infrastructure, and the data pipelines that make quant work. The space is dominated by large funds, but there's a long tail of opportunities in niche strategies, regional markets, and infrastructure tooling that doesn't serve the Fortune 500.

    We're careful about what we build here. Anything that touches market execution has to be measured against regulatory requirements from day one. We're not building black-box systems for retail — we're building the boring infrastructure that makes systematic strategies work at institutional standards.

  • Strategy backtesting and research tooling
  • Market data infrastructure for non-tier-1 markets
  • Execution systems for smaller systematic funds
  • Risk and portfolio analytics
