Brand, ads, content, email.
Your team runs them with a prompt.

We write your business down once. That's the brain. On it we build the tools that make your ads, content, email and pages, and the ones only your business needs. Your team runs them with clicks and prompts. Senior people build them, check the work and keep improving them. Every result goes back into the brain, so month six is sharper than launch.

  • 72 daysAthleteField, first commit to public launch. One person.
  • 1 weekTELUS Innovation Summit, launched. 43 applications on a goal of six.

    Every business

The shift

A growth team used to be
four agencies and twelve tools.

Now it's your people, a brain, and tools built for your business. The volume that needed a department is done by agents. What's left is the decision, and the people who make it well. That's the part we staff.

  1. 01The pyramid inverts.Senior people do the work. Agents do the volume.
  2. 02Context is the moat.What your business knows, written down, is the asset.
  3. 03Tools shape the business.Build them. Don't rent them.
  4. 04The bottleneck moved.From hands to judgement.
  5. 05Fewer meetings, fewer handoffs, fewer logins.One place to ask.
  6. 06Outsized results.On the team you have.

Transformations

Businesses that
run on a brain.

How it works

Experts build it.
Exponents run it.

01

Understand

The read and the foundation. What to lead with, decided.

02

The brain

Written once. Read by every agent and every person.

03

The exponents

Tools and agents that run on it. Core for every business, custom for one.

04

The rhythm

Read monthly, kept current, sharper every month.

Experts decide, build and review at every step.

  • Experts

    Senior people who've built brands and businesses before. They decide what the business claims, what ships and what changes. They build the exponents and check what they make.

  • The brain

    One living record per business: strategy, brand, voice, rules, results. Written once by experts. Read by every tool and every person. Sharper every week. Yours.

  • Exponents

    The tools and agents that run on the brain. Core ones every business gets: research, content, ads, email, web, the monthly read. Custom ones built for one business. Your team runs them with clicks and prompts.

Tooling

Build the systems
your business runs on.

Most companies rent their tools and bend the business to fit them. The cost is subscriptions, the complexity is integrations, and the reliance is on vendors who change the rules. A business with a brain builds the tools it needs on top of it, owns them, and changes them with a prompt. Experts build them to a high bar. The agents keep them running.

One place to ask
One repo, one board, one brain. The founder asks; the system answers or does.
Fewer vendors
Ads, email, content, web and the tools between them, run from the same record.
Owned, not rented
The brain, the exponents and the code stay with the business.

Who it's for

Founders first.
Then anyone building something.

  • Founders with a product and no team around it

    The company catches up to the product. Brand, growth and the tools in between, built by senior people, run by you, while you build.

  • Owners of a business that runs on them

    The method in your head becomes a brain the business runs on. The scans, the bookings, the voice. Your team runs them with a prompt.

  • Funds, platforms and builders

    One standard across a portfolio. Each company gets a brain, and what one learns the next starts with. Three reads, free.

Who we are

Decades in.
Weeks out.

Not an agency you brief. Not a tool you're alone with. Two decades building brands you know, for TELUS, Validere, Raising The Village and sixty others, and senior people who stay to keep yours sharp. No juniors to train, no account manager in between.

  • Tibi

    Two decades leading brand and growth. Built AthleteField alone, with exponents, and the brains every business here runs on.

  • The bench

    Senior people in design, search, growth, project management, motion and development. By name when the work needs them.

  • The exponents

    Core ones every business gets. Custom ones built for one. Built and kept sharp by the people above.

How we work

A read, a build,
a rhythm.

Price per business, in the order each part is bought
The readFreeTwo daysWhere the business stands, what to lead with, and the number we're going after. Free if we're a fit.
The buildFrom $12,000WeeksThe brain, the goals and the first exponents. Scoped to what exists: brain only, brand and site and brain, or the product too.
The rhythmFrom $7,500Each monthA monthly read. The exponents kept current and sharper every month. Fixed senior days for new work, shown in the brain.
Custom exponentsScopedPer buildA scan, a booking flow, a tool for the team, an app.

What it replaces: the brand agency, the ads agency, the content freelancer, a dozen tools and the handoffs between them.

Capacity is shown in the brain every month: what shipped, what's next, what the days went to. No minimum term. The brain stays yours. Where the tool counts the result, part of the fee can ride on it.
