Spent six years at the top of the creator economy. Paid the 30% for too long. Stopped.
Buenos Aires · Paris · est. 2024
Built by top 1% creators.
A top 1% creator who paid the 30% for too long, and an engineer who refused to ship to someone else's cloud. The tool we wanted did not exist. So we built it.

01The origin
One top 1% creator.
Maya R. spent six years at the top of the creator economy. Her own studio. Four chatters. An agency that took thirty cents on every dollar she earned. She was 28, running a seven figure business out of her phone, and answering DMs from a beach in Greece because the agency was, again, late.
In April 2024 she opened a code editor for the first time. She wrote a browser script. It worked for a weekend. Then it broke. Then she rewrote it. Then it broke again. It took her a month to admit that she did not need a better script. She needed a colleague that never slept, never asked for a cut, and never, ever, would leak her business to someone else's cloud.
She started looking for the tool that would do this for her. She could not find it. So she stopped looking.
02The founders
Then she met the engineer.
Summer 2024, a San Francisco hackathon. Thomas B. had been building autonomous agents at frontier AI labs since they were still papers, and was tired of shipping to someone else's data center. They left the conference with a Notion doc, a name, and a deadline. Three months later they shipped the first internal build, in a Paris apartment with a whiteboard that is still in the kitchen.
Cofounder, Chief Technology
Spent his career on autonomous agent research at the frontier. Left to build the one agent the lab could not ship.
03The numbers
One year after. 30,000+ creators.
We took our time. We shipped to twelve pilot creators across every persona we serve: beginners under $5k, top 1% running solo, former agency operators.

First script
Maya R. opens a code editor for the first time. Triages 3,200 unread DMs over a weekend.
First hypothesis
Meets Thomas B. at a San Francisco hackathon. They argue, for forty minutes, that an agent could live entirely on a creator's machine.
First internal build
They ship the first complete agent loop in a Paris apartment. The whiteboard from that night is still in the kitchen.
Closed pilot
12 creators across the three personas we serve: beginners under $5k, top 1% running solo, former agency operators. $2.4M managed. 92% retention through the unpaid beta.
Seed, on our terms
Led by operators. Backed by founders, engineers from frontier AI labs, and 11 top 1% creators on the cap table.
30,000+ creators
Across every stage and every platform. Studio in Buenos Aires, Paris, New York and Lisbon. The third door, opened.
