Software

Kayo Ventures builds practical AI-driven software for real business problems — LLM agents, Model Context Protocol servers, and agent-native payments (x402), delivered across Python, TypeScript, Swift, and serverless edge functions. The approach stays consistent: scope an ambiguous problem, ship a working system fast, and tie it to measurable business value.
