The Five Questions

How Captain Actually Works

Every Captain we've signed has asked the same five questions in the same order. Here are the honest answers — before the deck, before the call.

Q1 · The product

How does the platform work?

Plain-language outcome in, audit-ready answer out. 18+ specialist EU-sovereign agents do the regulatory math. You ask “is this project CSRD-compliant?” — you get a scored result with the rule it was measured against, the gap, and what to do next. Every run is logged.

Q2 · The business

How much does it make per month?

Today: low five figures monthly, deal-by-deal. Trajectory: €900k ARR by end of 2027. Pricing isn't speculative — €4,999 per deployment, €6,500 per bundle. Every customer saves more in a quarter than they pay us in a year. That's why the curve works.

Q3 · The ticket

How much money to get in?

€50k SAFE for a Captain seat (own one industry). €250k SAFE for a Fleet Admiral chair (own the cluster of 6 Captains beneath you). Both convert at the next priced round; cap and discount set in final docs.

Q4 · The return

What do I get back?

Three streams, they stack: SAFE equity upside at conversion, 5% carry on every deal closed in your industry for the life of the customer, and strategic rights — intro rights, industry vote on roadmap, co-branded launch, path to Fleet Admiral → CEO Council.

Q5 · The path

How do I start this week?

Tonight: one-pager + SAFE terms by email. Within 48h: 30-min call with the CEO — camera on, ID confirmed, no deck. By Friday: wire to Lifetime Oy (Finland), your name on the seat. First quarterly briefing in three weeks.

Q6 · The seat

Why is scarcity real?

30 industries, 30 Captains. One per seat. When Steel is taken, no second Steel Captain exists. The scarcity is structural, not marketing. Construction is filling. Maritime is in conversation. Entertainment & Cultural Industries is still open.

Standard step on our side: camera on, ID confirmed before SAFE docs land. We protect you, we protect the cap table, and we keep the impersonation playbook out of the seat board. KYC first, paper second.

Why This Exists

A Deep Tech Compliance Engine That Runs Where Cloud Can't Reach

DWS IQ 6 is the orchestration platform. The Lifetime World Model is the proprietary intelligence layer. Together they turn commodity AI into a deep tech compliance engine that runs where cloud can't reach.

Pillar 1
Proprietary Intelligence

15,000+ EU regulatory documents indexed across 30 industries. Not a fine-tuned GPT on PDFs — a regulatory intelligence graph built over seven years. 3-5 years to replicate.

Pillar 2
Edge AI Deployment

NVIDIA Jetson at construction sites, factory floors, mid-ocean vessels. Works offline. Under 100ms latency. A hardware+software moat competitors can't cross with better code. 2-3 years to replicate.

Pillar 3
Model-Agnostic Orchestration

Swap Claude for a different LLM tomorrow — the platform still works. External models are commodities. The World Model is the brain that makes them useful. 1-2 years to replicate.

€333,000
saved per customer per year
Cloud AI compliance: €350k/year.   Edge AI compliance: €17k/year.   Infrastructure: €15-50/month.
The Captain Model

Not a Generic Angel Round. A Seat at the Table.

DWS IQ 6 covers ETS, CBAM, CSRD, EPBD and 12 more EU mandates across 30 regulated industries, organized into 5 strategic clusters. We're not looking for passive capital — we're recruiting founding crew members who know their vertical inside out.

Each Captain owns one of 30 EU industry seats. Each Fleet Admiral owns one of 5 clusters — six Captain industries beneath them. You get status, visibility, and direct influence over how the product serves your industry or your cluster. Capital plus domain knowledge — that's the deal.

“This is not a generic angel round. Every Captain brings domain knowledge — not just capital. A Captain of Construction understands building sites. A Captain of Maritime knows what happens mid-ocean. A Captain of Chemicals has the Rolodex that opens procurement doors. We're matching investors to industries so every seat accelerates the platform.”
— Risto Anton Päärni, Founder & CEO, Lifetime Oy

Three Return Streams. They Stack.

1 · SAFE Equity
10–20×
paper return on €50k at next priced round (illustrative; cap and discount in final docs)
2 · Industry Carry
5%
on every qualifying deal in your industry, life of customer. Compounds with the platform.
3 · Strategic Seat
Vote · Intro · Brand
Industry roadmap vote, customer-intro rights, co-branded launch, path to Fleet Admiral → CEO Council.

Cash back (carry, monthly). Paper back (equity, at exit). Influence back (vote, roadmap, brand). The €50k is the smallest of the three.

Want the cluster, not just the seat?

A Fleet Admiral chair (€250k) sits above six Captains in your cluster. You don't just shape one industry — you shape the portfolio of industries beneath you, and earn 2% carry on top of every Captain seat you anchor. Five Fleet Admiral chairs total — one per cluster. See Fleet Admiral →

DWS IQ 6 already generates EUR 7-14k MRR with EUR 59,900 in signed pilots. The platform runs on EUR 15-50/month infrastructure with strategic technology partners including Google, AWS, IBM, NVIDIA, and Groq. The regulatory wave — CBAM, CSRD, ETS2, EPBD — guarantees demand through 2030 and beyond.

When a seat is taken, it is gone. Early Captains lock in the best terms.

What You're Orchestrating

Brain · Memory · Body · Hands

As Captain you don't just invest — you direct an ecosystem. Here is the architecture under your command.

🧠

Brain

DWS IQ 6 Platform

18 specialized AI agents orchestrated via MCP. Compliance, emissions, safety, SEO, logistics — all running concurrently.

  • Multi-agent orchestration
  • CLI + JSON pipeline access
  • Model-agnostic (Claude, Gemini, Groq)
📚

Memory

Lifetime World Model

Proprietary climate intelligence layer. 15,000+ EU regulatory documents indexed. 7 years of domain knowledge encoded.

  • 30 industry vertical knowledge
  • ETS, CBAM, CSRD, EPBD coverage
  • 3-5 years to replicate
⚙️

Body

Firehorse Suite

Automation, reports, content management, omnichannel. The operational layer that turns intelligence into action.

  • Automated compliance reports
  • Event-driven workflows
  • Zero-touch audit trails
🤖

Hands

Lifetime Fleet

Edge AI on NVIDIA Jetson. IoT sensors. Drones. Physical execution at construction sites, factories, vessels — where cloud can't reach.

  • <100ms edge inference
  • Offline-capable (solar-ready)
  • €333k/year cloud cost savings

As Captain, you see all four layers. Your industry dashboard shows the Brain's agent decisions, the Memory's regulatory intelligence, the Body's automation status, and the Hands' edge device telemetry — all in one Situation Room.

Why Q2 2026

Rail. Ledger. Neither alone is enough.

12 European banks are launching a digital euro in H2 2026. The compliance layer doesn't ship with it.

Qivalis
Settles the payment
12-bank consortium. MiCA EMT. H2 2026. BBVA, ING, BNP Paribas, SEB, UniCredit + 7 others.
DWS IQ
Records the obligation
CBAM updated. CSRD booked. ETS reconciled. Same second the payment clears.

A payment without compliance recording is just a transfer.
Compliance without payment data is just an estimate.

The 12 consortium banks are building payment infrastructure without a compliance layer.
That gap opens Q3 2026.

Nordea and OP — Finland's two largest banking groups — are outside the consortium at launch.
DWS IQ records every obligation regardless of rail: Qivalis, SEPA, or any future MiCA-compliant stablecoin.

DWS IQ is the compliance ledger for Qivalis-era industrial payments.
