Spending in America has shifted. Quietly. There’s a growing divide. The biggest opportunities go to the founders who can bridge it. Part 1 of 4.

We're excited to announce Ciridae's $20M Seed, led by Accel, with participation from a16z, General Catalyst, Sunflower, Backcountry, and our friends and family. Jack (@weissenberger_j) and I met years ago through our then-girlfriends, now wives, and have been hacking on projects together ever since. He was building AI for enterprises at Apple and Tenyx. I was at a16z, watching the same businesses try to adopt it and fail. We compared notes and realized the options for enterprises were not only bad for the business but bad for the operators! We looked at each other and said, “I think we can do this better…” Since then, working with startups, governments, and PE-backed businesses, we have made every mistake worth making, and only now feel like we're beginning to solve the real problem of enterprise-wide AI Transformation. This “real economy”, the businesses that keep this country running, have been under-appreciated by Silicon Valley and under-transformed by New York. Yet these are the businesses with the most to gain from AI and the least equipped to capture it. The world does not move itself. Ciridae is the AI Transformation Firm for the real economy. We embed with businesses that move the physical world. The distributors, construction, logistics, home services, staffing, and more, and rebuild their core operations as AI-native operating systems. End to end. One accountable partner. In weeks through our platform. As the models become intelligent enough to accomplish most knowledge work, the economy’s bottleneck is now Transformation, the work of integrating intelligent software into a business and rewiring the business so AI runs the operation and people run the AI. We believe AI Transformation is a new problem that requires a new business. New team, new technologies, and new business model. Not a Frankenstein's monster of transformation in parts. In 2025, we hit high-seven figures in revenue, grew profitably, worked with governments with Trillions in GDP and PE Funds totalling Trillions in AUM. @Accel and @ChristineEsser backed us to scale the team, deepen the platform, and bring AI Transformation to more of the businesses that need it most. If you lead or back a business that wants AI to be the reason you win, reach out. If you want exposure to real problems, with real ownership, and work alongside the highest-merit team you can find, reach out. One business at a time. More to do. Onwards.

Launching the Alive Prize. $100K to build what makes you come alive. I've been fixated on a quote from Howard Thurman lately: "Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." We want to help more people find that feeling. aliveprize.com

PERSONAL UPDATE: After 5+ years, I am leaving @a16z to start a fund! This was the toughest career decision of my life. I learned from the best partners and was privileged to work with incredible founders. So why leave? It is simply time to build. More to come on this.
