What didn't
work.

Most studios bury failures. We publish ours. Every co-founded venture that gets sunset shows up here with a public case study — what we set out to build, what went wrong, what carried forward. Founders evaluating Relay 1 deserve to see both sides of the ledger.

Learning compounds in writing. Lessons you don't publish, you re-learn.
