About Oz Pre Alpha
Oz Pre Alpha is a lab, an environment, and a proving ground. It exists to nurture growth, reward real work, and cut through the noise. This is not about trends. It's about building what matters and refusing to lower the bar.
Why We Exist
We started because modern startup culture has become obsessed with shortcuts — hype, MVPs, pitch decks, and pre-product buzz. In that race, something got lost: the fundamentals. We saw an opening in the market for companies that do things the right way — customer-first, no fluff, and with serious intent.
Our Mission
To find real markets, solve real problems, and build the kind of companies that stand the test of time. We aim to attract people who want to get things done, not just talk about it. People who care about scale, customer value, and actually delivering.
Why "Pre Alpha"?
We're not afraid to move fast, fail, and course correct. But when something sticks — when it shows promise — we lock in and go deep. "Pre Alpha" is where the magic starts, but we know how to see things through to production and beyond.
How We Choose What to Build
If there's a real market, and customers are excited for us to enter it, we will. We don't chase niche fads — we chase scale, traction, and opportunity. We move deliberately and decisively when the time is right.
What We Believe
- The MVP trap is real. We don't stop at "good enough" — we deliver what the customer actually needs.
- Efficiency, profitability, and customer obsession are not mutually exclusive.
- You don’t have to be first — you just have to be the best and most disciplined.
- Back-up plans are a luxury we can’t afford. We're all in, or we're out.
Who We Are
We treat everyone the same — whether you’re a CEO or a groundskeeper. We’ve been both. We know what it’s like to do the work, build from scratch, and earn every inch. There’s no ego here — just drive, grit, and respect for the craft.
