Roti.Ventures

Build · 100% owned

We build Our own ventures, run through the ROTI loop — one in build at a time.

Roti starts companies the way we teach founders to: research first, opportunity mapped, assumptions tested, then iterate. One venture is in build at any moment; two or three more sit in cheap discovery. Small teams, AI-leveraged, hard kill gates.

What we look for

  • A problem we have watched people pay to solve, usually inside a workshop or our own life
  • Buildable to first revenue by one or two people in six months
  • A calm business is a fine outcome; a venture-scale one is a bonus
  • Distribution we already have — cohorts, communities, directories, our own network

What you get

  • Our time, at full attention
  • The ROTI loop and its gates
  • PMFTracker, once its hypothesis lands

What we take

  • Nothing from anyone — these are ours

How a Roti venture gets built

Serial build, parallel discovery.

One venture is in build at any time. Two or three more sit in the Research and Opportunities phases, which are cheap and often run inside ProductTrio workshops. Nothing moves from discovery into build without a demand signal, and nothing stays in build past a missed gate.

Teams are small on purpose: one or two people, AI-leveraged, with a clear owner. The goal is a calm, profitable business; a venture-scale outcome is welcome, not required.
