48x — boutique B2B AI studio. We build, invest, and ship production AI.

PLAYER 1 — PRESS START
BUILD // INVEST // DOMINATE

Look, we get it. Your employees are drowning in busywork.
Meetings about meetings. Spreadsheets from hell.
That's where we come in.

WE BUILD AND INVEST IN B2B WEB APPS POWERED BY >> ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE <<
(the good kind, not the Skynet kind)

48 times more productive. Hence the name. We did the math. (Okay, Brian did the math. He's the one who likes spreadsheets.)


< WHAT WE DO >

(Besides drink too much coffee and argue about fonts)

BUILD STUFF

We build the apps we wish existed. The weird side projects we kept pitching at our last jobs. The tools we'd actually use ourselves on a Tuesday afternoon.

If we think it'd be cool, we ship it. If it turns out useful for someone else too, even better.

+ EVALS+ PROD+ USERS
FUND STUFF

We back founders with deep knowledge of a problem and a solution in their head — but no idea how to make it happen.

You bring the conviction and the domain. We bring the build, the capital, and the scars to get it shipped.

+ CHECKS+ TIME+ SCARS
FIX STUFF

We help big companies stop pretending they're "doing AI" and actually do AI. Roadmaps. Evals. Real engineering attention from people who ship.

Anthropic-aligned practice. Solution architects in training. Strong opinions, lightly held.

+ STRATEGY+ DELIVERY+ CLAUDE
SHIP STUFF

We help small teams act bigger. Eight people, the right model, two weeks of attention — suddenly you move like a team of eighty.

Workflow audit. Tool selection. Custom assistants. Training that sticks.

We're not your typical tech bros. Okay, maybe a little bit.
But at least we're self-aware about it.

Together, we've got the tech, the product sense, and the business chops. Also an unhealthy obsession with making things better.

>> TALK TO US <<

We're pretty responsive. Unlike that other startup you emailed.

GOT A WILD IDEA? BUILDING SOMETHING COOL?
JUST WANT TO SAY HI?

We're all ears. Seriously. Nick's got big ones.

@ hello@48x.ai We'll actually read it. No auto-responders. No 'we'll get back to you'. Just humans.

(Yes, we still have a guestbook. It's ironic. Or is it? We're not sure anymore.)

SITE UNDER CONSTRUCTION! More awesome features coming soon!!!
