Current Status

Where We Are Today


Funding Stage:

Current Team:

Solo full-time technical founder, using advisors and project-based contributors where needed. Full-time hiring remains gated by evidence and available runway.

Investment Readiness:

The product is functional for controlled pilots. Customer willingness to pay, repeat use, and channel economics remain under validation.
