Founded by Builders
Built companies. Learned lessons. Still learning. We don't have all the answers, but we've wrestled with many of the same questions.

What Drives Me
Turning operational chaos into scalable systems that just work. Connecting the right people at the right time.
Hardest Lesson

Amish
Managing Partner
Econometrics and food science background led to an obsession with complex systems at scale. Built the tech backbone for billion-dollar logistics operations. Applies quantitative rigor to operational chaos - turning supply chain guesswork into predictive science.
What Drives Me
Uncovering and distilling operational nuances and complexity into scalable systems.
Hardest Lesson
The hardest problems are rarely technical - they're human.
Why We Started Idyllic
The Problem
VCs write checks and wait. Accelerators give advice from the sidelines. We watched brilliant founders burn out trying to figure everything out alone. That's not how great companies get built.
Our Journey
We've pulled all-nighters debugging production issues. We've pitched to skeptical enterprise buyers. We've navigated the chaos of scaling from 10 to 100 people. We know what keeps founders up at night.
The Solution
So we created what we needed: a true partnership. We're in the strategy sessions. We're in the code with you. We're in the tough conversations. Your wins are our wins. Your challenges are our challenges.
How We Work
True Co-Founders
From technical architecture to customer intros, we bring our experience and network to help solve whatever challenges come up.
Skin in the Game
We put our equity where our mouth is. When you win, we win. When things get tough, we're right there with you.
The Long Game
We don't bail after demo day. From MVP to market leader, we're committed to the full journey.
Let's Connect
The best way to reach us is through a mutual connection. We believe in the power of trusted relationships and shared context.
