We build AI-native businesses with a product, brand, technology and initial traction. We prepare turnkey ventures for acquisition through yournicorn and build or acquire selected businesses through our Venture Studio. HybriqsOS powers the operations behind them.
A market-ready business with its brand, product, technology stack and initial traction. Each venture reaches defined milestones before being listed. The specific assets and operating position depend on the business. The marketplace is coming soon; join the waitlist for updates.
HybriqsOS is our self-learning Agentic Business Operating System. It connects AI agents, standard operating procedures, tools and business data across marketing, sales, operations, finance and customer success.
Yes. Our business workshops help teams put AI into practice. Start with the AI Process Potential Analysis to identify bottlenecks and assess automation opportunities, or work on a selected workflow in the two-day on-site workshop.
A turnkey venture lets you start with an operating foundation rather than building everything from scratch. The pace of growth depends on the business, market and execution. Our Venture Studio targets an exit within 12 months; this is an objective, not a guaranteed timeline.
AscendX is a Swiss venture builder founded by serial entrepreneurs Michael Breiter and Patrick Degelo, with experience in software, engineering, company building and multiple exits.
No. AI-native operations can also support service businesses and other companies with repeatable workflows. The right starting point depends on the business model and the processes involved.
We identify high-potential niches, validate demand and build towards defined operating milestones. Product, brand, technology, initial traction and revenue form the foundation for a venture ready to scale.
