Development Lab
The lab is how the studio earns the right to a long build.
The Development Lab designs and builds production-grade products for studio ventures and for companies that already exist. It is the near-term commercial engine. It is not a body shop for undefined blockchain projects.
How an engagement starts
A written scope, a named buyer, and a decision about whether programmable infrastructure belongs in the design. If it does not, we will say so in the proposal rather than invent a chain.
Commercial models
Fixed-scope discovery and build, embedded product teams, monthly retainers, licensing of something we have actually shipped, or a venture co-creation that points back to the 25/75 model. Revenue share only when the revenue is defined.
