A Swiss venture studio

Ideas are cheap. We build dragons.

We co-found and build digital companies with founders who would rather breathe fire than polish pitch decks. Then we scale and fly as your copilot.

Most startups die. Not from bad ideas — from being built alone, too slow, with too little. So we stopped watching from the sidelines. We co-found. We build together. We scale. And we fly as your copilot.

What we do

We don’t advise.
We co-found.

01

Co-found

Skin in the game, not a seat on the board. We join as co-founders and carry the weight with you from day zero.

02

Build

A full studio on tap — product, design, engineering, growth, legal, finance. Nine disciplines. One team. Zero agency invoices.

03

Scale & fly

Your copilot, not your passenger. Go-to-market, growth, team and investor-readiness — we stay in the cockpit while your venture climbs. Let’s get this fire started.

The Firestarter Playbook

From spark
to wildfire.

A repeatable system, not a lucky streak. Seven moves that take an idea from a napkin to a venture — and keep going from zero to one, then one to two.

  1. 01

    Validate the idea

    Kill it fast or prove it hard. No vanity, only data.

  2. 02

    Evaluate the potential

    Is it a business — or a billion-user platform?

  3. 03

    Ship the MVP

    Released with us in the room — as co-founder.

  4. 04

    Assemble the dream team

    Studio resources to build, validate and recruit.

  5. 05

    Get investor-ready

    Story, numbers and pitch sharpened together — so you raise on your terms.

  6. 06

    Hit product–market fit

    Pilot released. Traction measured. Growth multiplied.

  7. 07

    Scale and fly. We copilot.

    In the cockpit next to you while the venture climbs. No ejecting.

What we hunt

Companies that scale
without headcount.

$1M $100M

Without multiplying the team. Worth a billion in years — not decades.
