# Braintied > Braintied is an AI-native venture engine: one shared stack that builds and runs a portfolio of software companies, plus client ventures shipped in days. Founded November 2023 by Galen Oakes. We build AI so you can be human. People create in conversation. Agents build and ship. Every venture inherits a back office. The loop has run live: meetings on Kulti, shipping through Parlor, record-keeping in Sentigen, distribution through Swishh.
