13 ventures
- AlmanacYou have fewer summers left than you think. Almanac turns a family's travel bucket list into a ten-year calendar, solved against school breaks, budget, and how old the kids will be.
- Best BoyYou look up the director and stop. Best Boy follows everyone else who made it — so a cinematographer you love can take you somewhere you'd never have found.
- BunkYou find out about Zoo Camp in July, from another parent, at the pool. Bunk puts every camp in Louisville — ages, dates, prices, open spots — in one searchable place.
- CitronEvery tennis cap's brim blocks the exact ball you need to see on an overhead. Citron cuts the brim to two inches — long enough for sun, short enough to stay out of your swing.
- FetchlandSix months after a set comes out, the singles get cheap — but building the cart means clicking TCGplayer one card at a time. Fetchland takes a set and a budget and hands back the list, ready to paste in.
- Food JournalA 4-year-old walks into the produce section and sees six things they've never eaten. Food Journal is a book of 1,000 foods, rated 1 to 3, filled in one square at a time.
- LootIndependent stores compete against Amazon on price and lose. Loot replaces the punch card with real items — dropped, kept, traded, and spent at the stores that gave them out.
- OverlookDozens of Coach House ventures, no two alike, and no shared map. Overlook reads every one straight from its repository and draws them as one picture — nobody maintains it.
- Patch BoyStreaming buried who actually played on the record. Patch Boy routes from any credit — a guitarist, a producer — three hops to something you'd never have queued up.
- RadiiEffortless music used to mean flipping on a radio. Radii is a speaker with knobs that tune the era, tempo, genre, and mood — no app, no screen, no next song to pick.
- Rook's DispatchSeven AI agents play a daily campaign with no one at the wheel. One of them narrates. One of them is watching you.
- ShortlistFamilies spend a thousand dollars visiting the wrong colleges. Eight questions, then the schools worth the gas money — grouped into trips.
- The TelegramA phone is the wrong object for a five-year-old. The Telegram is a button: hold it, talk, and a paper letter chatters out on Grandma's end a minute later.
