We build your AI-native tech assets. Built to compound. Owned by you.
Swiss AI-Native Studio for Private Capital.
For Private Equity, Private Debt, Family Offices, and LPs.
Three offerings, one logic
We deliver outcomes. What we ship belongs to you.
Lab — We explore, advise, design.
Structured research, design, and prototyping. We assess what AI can realistically do
for your workflows, and ship working prototypes on real data when needed.
1–5 weeks.
Build — We deliver assets.
We design and build your AI-native assets in production-ready increments. Each one
shippable on its own. Each one extending the last.
2–8 weeks per phase.
Run — We keep it running.
Ongoing operations for AI and agentic systems in production. Built by us, or built
by others. Maintenance, monitoring, security updates, model evolutions.
Annual engagement.
Featured engagements
-
Workflow Intelligence — For investment teams turning their
operations into their competitive edge. We map your existing workflows, identify
the bottlenecks, and design a target-state architecture where AI can augment the
team at scale. 2–3 weeks. IC-ready.
-
AI Due Diligence Pre-Deal — For GPs assessing a target's AI
maturity before signing. We audit the AI maturity of a target company in a
transaction context. Is AI a lever for your value creation plan, or a risk that
bends your thesis? 2–3 weeks. IC-ready.
-
AI Readiness Assessment — For firms preparing to move AI from
experimentation to production. We assess data quality, pipeline architecture,
infrastructure readiness, governance posture, internal skills, and security
exposure. 2–3 weeks. Production-ready.
Every engagement starts with a conversation
engagement.start() — 30-minute call with Stan, CEO. Free. No deck.

engagement.deliver()
- Lab: 1 to 5 weeks. Independent increment. Assessment Report you own.
- Build: phased delivery. Code, models, docs handed over on ship.
- Run: annual engagement. Ongoing operations on production systems.
- Exit available at the end of any phase. No re-engagement clause.
5 First principles
Every engagement. No exceptions.
-
Full ownership. Yours the moment we deliver. Code, model,
architecture, documentation. Nothing licensed back to you. No IP clauses to renew.
No vendor footprint to remove later.
-
Zero lock-in. There is no global contract. Each phase is its own
engagement, signed and paid as it ships. Continue when it makes sense. Stop when
it doesn't.
-
Incremental value. Every phase ends with a working asset you can
deploy, audit, or hand to another team. If you stop after phase one, what phase
one delivered is yours, intact, and usable.
-
Private Capital depth. Deal pipeline, due diligence, covenants,
monitoring, reporting, compliance. We arrive fluent. No domain translation. No
onboarding tax.
-
Production-grade AI. Useful beats impressive. The unglamorous
plumbing that makes AI real. The model running on your infrastructure when
sovereignty matters.
About Sharelock
Built by founders. Run as a studio.
Sharelock is a Swiss AI-native studio working with the firms that invest private
capital, where data sovereignty, regulatory exposure, and operational continuity
leave no room for error.
We take a small number of engagements each quarter. Every system we ship is
architected, secured, and supported by the people who built it. No layered delivery,
no subcontracting chain to audit.
Our practice spans the full AI-native stack: machine learning, AI engineering,
backend, and cybersecurity.
