Eian Kennedy
Founder and CEO of Relay 1 and the Ventari Holdings portfolio. Software development degree. Multiple companies built, all operating inside the portfolio. Veteran.
We don’t scale Relay 1 by hiring partners. We scale by being on every charter, every weekly review, every build call. Two operators is the unit. We ship the company, we don’t bankroll it.

We don’t observe. If the doc moves, our cursor is on it. If the call happens, we’re on it.
All commitments to founders are in writing, in the shared studio doc. No private side-deals.
We commit before the founder does. If we won’t take 25 to 35% for the build, we won’t ask you to sign.
Co-founders get access to the studio's vetted partner network. Services aren't included in the studio fee. You get warm introductions and preferred pricing across the partners we already work with, so you don't have to find a CPA, build a relationship with a business credit consultant, or shop legal alone.
Books, tax, and close. Studio-grade firm, founder rates.
Financing and credit consultants who speak founder, not banker.
Formation, IP, and employment. Pre-vetted, pre-priced.
Coverage stack tuned for early-stage operating companies.
Operating accounts and treasury, with someone who returns calls.
