The AI investment thesis has shifted. Phase 1: "We need AI tools." Phase 2: "We need AI agents." Phase 3: "We need our systems to actually work together." Most of the $100B+ flowing into AI right now is still targeting Phase 1 and 2. But the founders we work with are already hitting the wall — they have the tools, they have the agents, and they still can't get a clear picture of what's happening in their business in real time. That's the KAOS opportunity. Not another AI product. An orchestration layer that connects the signals already inside a business — and turns them into decisions, not just dashboards. The market is ready. The infrastructure exists. The gap is the architecture. That's what we build at c51.
