Why we run thirty-five products in one studio
By Arjun Mehta
Parallel ventures share more than a logo — deployment pipelines, model serving, design systems. Here is how we structure that without slowing anyone down.
Most venture studios pick a lane — one sector, one stage, one playbook. We chose the opposite: thirty-five products across platform, consumer, enterprise, media, and infrastructure, all built under one roof.
The bet is that modern product building has converged. Every team needs the same primitives — model serving, auth, billing, design systems, deployment pipelines. Rebuilding those thirty-five times would be waste. Sharing them lets each product team focus on the problem only they can solve.
The hard part is governance. Shared infra cannot mean shared roadmaps. Each product owns its release cycle, its metrics, and its P&L narrative. What they pull from the studio is optional, versioned, and never a blocker. That separation is what keeps parallel ventures from becoming a monolith.
