AI infrastructure
Shared agent orchestration, document intelligence, and model operations, so a new company starts on a proven stack.
The Studio
Built by Operators. Designed for Complexity.
Prowl is an operator-led AI venture studio. We build companies in industries where our founders and operators have deep experience, then give each one the leadership, platform, and capital to grow.

Why a studio.
The next generation of enterprise software will not be a better database. It will be an intelligent operating layer, and the people best placed to build it are the operators who have lived with the problem.
Most businesses do not fail because they lack software. They fail because their systems do not talk to each other, their teams spend too much time processing information by hand, and their most important decisions are trapped inside emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, faxes, portals, and disconnected workflows.
A studio lets us attack those problems one company at a time, with a team that has done it before, instead of asking a single founder to rebuild the whole company-building machine from scratch.
How we build
Hunt. Prove. Launch.
We work on a small number of ideas and are disciplined about which ones become companies.
01Hunt
Every company starts with an expensive, unsolved problem in an industry where our founders and operators have deep experience: finance, healthcare, private capital, and go-to-market.
02Prove
We build the product with operators at the table and prove it with real users before we scale it. Every idea gets a clear call: pursue it, spin it out, or park it.
03Launch
Winners become companies with their own leadership, brand, and seed capital, backed by the studio platform every Prowl company shares.
The studio platform
What every Prowl company inherits.
Each company starts with the studio’s infrastructure, operators, and capital already in place, so its team can spend its time on customers and product.
Security & compliance
Audit trails, human approval on high-stakes actions, and HIPAA-aware patterns designed in from day one.
Go-to-market
Positioning, content, paid media, and attribution from a team that markets its own portfolio.
Operating leadership
Operators who have built and sold an AI company work alongside every team.
Capital
Up to $500K in seed capital for qualified ventures, plus introductions as companies grow.
Founder
Greg Hackney
Greg Hackney is a healthcare operator, AI investor, and technology founder with experience across AI and natural language processing, healthcare operations, private capital, and multi-company operating platforms. He founded Expresiv Technologies, an early speech recognition and natural language processing company later acquired by 3M, and has led healthcare, capital, and software initiatives across complex operating environments.
Prowl grows out of that operating background and a practical view of AI: it only matters if it makes real businesses easier to run.
AI does not replace operating discipline. It compounds it.
Operating principles
The goal is not novelty. The goal is leverage.
Four principles shape every company the studio builds.
AI Native by Design
Built from the ground up with AI at the core—not bolted on.
Outcomes That Compound
Systems that learn, adapt, and continuously increase impact over time.
Enterprise Ready
Secure, scalable, and governed to meet the standards of enterprise.
Hunt Complexity
We go after the hardest problems—so you can stay ahead.
