The seed round allocates capital across four pillars: IP core conversion and filing, defensive IP and regulatory escrow, corporate IP asset purchase, and product and go-to-market development.
Allocation Detail
$10.0M — IP Core Conversion & Filing
Convert the existing provisional patent portfolio into full non-provisional applications and file continuations across legal, medical, finance, government, and industrial verticals. This is the foundational moat work.
$5.0M — Defensive IP & Regulatory Escrow
Hold reserves for IP defense, oppositions, and regulatory compliance escrow. This protects the patent fortress while the company scales under the radar.
$11.0M — Corporate IP Asset Purchase
Purchase the core intellectual property from the founder and consolidate ownership into Aegis Intelligence LLC. Clean ownership enables corporate licensing, future financing, and M&A readiness.
$5.0M — Product & GTM Development
$2.0M is allocated directly to product and go-to-market development. Of the $11M corporate IP purchase, the founder reinvests $3.0M back into the company as a loan, bringing the total Product and GTM budget to $5.0M. This funds hardening the enclave orchestrator, building the audit-service platform, and launching vertical pilots through legal IT, medical resellers, and government contractors.
Total Seed Ask: $28.0M — Clean ownership, a defensible patent moat, and first vertical deployments.
