Soglia Ventures — Est. 2026

We build the appscompanies actuallywant to ship.

A two-person partnership crafting software with the care of a studio and the velocity of a startup. We take on a small number of partners each year, and we build a few products of our own.

01 — The Story
  • Founded2026
  • SizeTwo partners
  • Clients / yr4–6
  • Products3 in flight

A studio of two, by design.

Soglia Ventures was founded on a simple observation: most software teams are organized to look productive, not to ship work that lasts. We wanted something different — a partnership small enough to stay in the details, but seasoned enough to ship at production weight.

We split our year roughly in half. One half we spend embedded with a handful of partners — operators, founders, and teams who need a senior pair to build with them, not for them. The other half we spend building our own products: ideas we couldn't stop thinking about, ideas we wanted to live with.

Two people. One bar. Everything we ship has both our names on it.

02 — The People

Two operators. One bar.

03 — What we do

Four ways to work with us.

From a 3-week audit to a full revenue-share partnership. Every engagement gets a written scope, fixed timelines, and the same two people doing the work.

01

Upgrade

We evaluate your existing app, codebase, or stack — then elevate, modernize, or migrate it. You leave with a written plan, a backlog of quick wins, and a clear path forward.

  • Audit
  • Migration
  • Quick wins
02

Custom Engagement

A defined scope, a fixed timeline, two senior partners. We ship the specific thing you need shipped — then get out of the way.

  • Scoped
  • Fixed-fee
  • 3–8 wk
03

End-to-End Builds

Zero to one. We design, build, and ship a real shippable product — research, design, and engineering as one tight loop. No handoffs, no juniors.

  • Design
  • Engineering
  • Launch
04

Revenue-Share Partnership

Bring us an idea you can't shake. We evaluate it, then build and ship it together — for equity, royalty, or a revenue share. Skin in the game on both sides.

  • Equity
  • Royalty
  • Long-term

05 — How we work

A short, honest process.

  1. 01

    Listen

    A 60-minute call. We learn the problem, the constraints, the people. No deck required.

  2. 02

    Scope

    A short written proposal — what we'd build, what we wouldn't, what it costs, what it doesn't.

  3. 03

    Build

    Weekly demos, daily commits, a shared channel. You see the work as it happens, not at the end.

  4. 04

    Ship

    We launch with you, and we stay through the first month of real usage. No handoff cliff.

07 — In their words
Soglia did in six weeks what our last vendor couldn't do in nine months. The difference is they actually ship.
VP Product, Halcyon Health
It felt like hiring two senior employees on Monday and having them in production on Friday. We've never had a smoother engagement.
Founder, Northbound Labs
They told us what to cut. That alone was worth the engagement.
CTO, Merit Studio
08 — Engagement models

Pricing without the dance.

Four shapes of engagement. Every proposal we send fits one of these or says — clearly — that it doesn't.

10 — FAQ

Common questions, plain answers.

  • All three, in different proportions. Most engagements are fixed-fee or monthly. We occasionally swap a portion of fee for equity when the partnership is right and the cap table makes sense.

  • Two. Sometimes three for a short period. Anything more and we stop being a studio.

  • Yes — most of our work is alongside an existing team. We're explicit about how we operate so the seams are obvious from day one.

  • Default: TypeScript, React/React Native, Postgres, on whatever cloud you're already on. We've shipped Swift, Kotlin, Python, and Go when the project called for it.

  • Distributed — we run on a shared calendar, not a shared zip code. We travel to client sites for kickoffs and launch weeks.

  • Yes. We have a short, plain-English mutual NDA you can sign in 90 seconds, or we'll sign yours.
