growth, owned from diligence to exit.

Four ways to get the growth your deal was underwritten on: a pre-close read, an embedded first 100 days, a standing growth pod, and a team multiplied by AI.

EQUITY VALUE OVER THE HOLD with Day One · ~3.0× without us · ~2.0× at close at exit

Why Day One Growth

you've been sold value creation before. this time it moves the number.

The strategy consultant left a deck. The agency reported clicks. Neither moved EBITDA. We put operators inside your portfolio company to own the growth number and deliver it, now multiplied by AI.

EBITDA, not a deck

We own and deliver the growth number. We don't just recommend it.

revenue, not a clicks report

Marketing, sales, product, and AI, all tied to the P&L.

the return you underwrote

Measured the way the deal was modeled, not by vanity metrics.

Where we plug in

the sooner growth starts, the more the hold is worth.

Most growth help arrives at close, when the clock is already running. We start in diligence, so the plan is moving before you own the asset, and keeps compounding through the hold.

01THE FRONT DOOR

pre-close growth diligence

You're underwriting a growth plan you can't see.

Before you sign, you get a clear read on whether the growth case holds: demand, pipeline, GTM efficiency, the product upside, and where AI changes the math. You walk into IC underwriting to a plan, not a hope.

WHAT YOU GET

A growth plan you can underwrite, with the EBITDA bridge behind itThe unit-economics teardown: CAC, payback, win rates, priced to the modelA 100-day execution plan, ready to run the day you close

02EXECUTION

first 100-day execution

The thesis is approved, the clock starts, and there's no operating muscle in the building.

From the day you close, the commercial engine is already running and the model starts moving, instrumented and reconciled to the plan from week one. No ramp, no waiting for a new hire to find their feet.

03THROUGH EXIT

embedded growth pods

Management needs durable horsepower, not another deck, and not a hire to manage.

Your management team gets senior growth operators and AI tooling running alongside them through the hold, owning execution and handing back an engine that runs without them by exit.

04AI ENABLEMENT

your team, multiplied by AI

Your team is buried in manual work, and “add AI” is a board mandate nobody knows how to execute.

Your people stop drowning in manual work. We find every workflow where agents and automation can take the busywork, build them, and give your team their time back for growth. Woven into any engagement, or run standalone.

WHAT YOU GET

A map of every workflow where AI replaces busywork, by functionAgents and automations built, shipped, and adopted by your teamYour AI operating playbook, tuned as the models improve

How we work

operators, not advisors.

No audit phase, no deck-and-leave. We embed, run the plays ourselves, and hand back an engine your team can keep running.

01

embed

We join your team, and the deal model, in week one. No ramp, no audit phase.

02

execute

We run the plays ourselves across marketing, sales, product, and AI. You watch the model move.

03

hand back

We leave a self-sustaining engine and a team that can run it, then rotate to advisory.
