From our MSP work

The pattern that reshaped 4 industries.

Every time — the same pattern. Complex operations, plus rich operational data, plus work that moves faster than hiring, equals a managed partner winning.

The pattern that reshaped 4 industries.

Healthcare. R1 RCM · Ensemble Health Partners. Revenue cycle operations — too complex, too fast-moving to staff in-house — handed to a managed partner. Hundreds of billions in claims processed annually. Health systems got better collections rates without the overhead.

Legal. Elevate Services · Brightflag. Contract review, matter management, billing analysis — owned by a managed operator using AI workflows. GCs focus on strategy, not operations. The category now serves Fortune 500 legal departments and Am Law 200 firms.

Financial Advice. Envestnet · Orion Advisor Solutions. Compliance monitoring, client reporting, billing operations — handed to a managed platform. Advisors advise. The operating layer handles the rest. Trillions in assets now run on managed financial infrastructure.

B2B Revenue. Managed Revenue Operations. CRM data, pipeline signals, deal velocity — read by a managed intelligence layer running on the sales team's own data. Pipeline visibility without a VP of RevOps on payroll. The category is standard practice in enterprise sales.

MSPs check all three boxes. Complex business operations. Rich data sitting inside PSA and RMM systems. Moving faster than any owner-operator can hire for. The managed AI partner for the MSP industry is being built right now. The founding cohort is deciding today.
