About

One founder. One thesis.
The substrate every operator needs.

Allometry is the address-level underwriting and routing layer for physical revenue. Solo-founded in 2026, headquartered in Montréal. Currently building with one signed design partner; running a $250K angel round (closing May 30, 2026), with a larger round to follow, to ship the AI-native architecture documented under § Architecture.

§ Origin

300 customers. No canonical answer.

Allometry started with one operator and one unanswerable question.

The CEO of JWG Palettes — a pallet manufacturer with operations across Quebec — spent six months trying to figure out which of their ~300 customers generated the majority of their margin. The data existed. It lived across an ERP, a CRM, an FSM, a dispatch system, an accounting ledger, and a contract repository. None of those systems could answer the question on their own. None of them shared an ontology. None of them knew what an "address" was in the same way.

That gap is not a JWG problem. It is the gap inside every asset-heavy operator we have talked to since — in HVAC, fiber, EV charging, telecom, distributed solar, logistics. Operators know revenue. Almost none of them know margin at the address. Every commercial decision — what to quote, who to prioritize, where to expand, which contract to renew — is a guess made in the rearview mirror.

Allometry's first job is to make that gap go away. The system unifies an operator's six-to-twelve fragmented systems into a single canonical graph, scores every address against a live margin model, and routes commercial decisions through it. The unit is the address. The system of record is the graph. The compounding asset is the coverage.

§ The name
allometry
noun · al·lom·e·try
/əˈlɒm.ɪ.tri/

1.The study of how the parts of a thing scale with the whole — branches to a tree, organs to a body, dispatch routes to a depot. Coined in 1936 by Julian Huxley to describe non-linear scaling in biology.

2.In infrastructure: the recognition that a hundred-site operator is not just five twenty-site operators. The math changes shape as the system gets bigger — and the price book, the dispatch board, the renewal calendar all have to change with it.

3.What we do: build the math that scales with you, so the price you quote on day one still defends the margin you reported in Q8.

§ How we work

Five things we refuse to negotiate.

We are deliberately small, deliberately picky about customers, and deliberately quiet on the marketing front. Here is the operating system.

01

Operators only

Every conversation with Allometry happens with the founder, today. No SDR funnels, no outsourced demos. If you book a call, you talk to the person who is building the thing — and who has to live with whatever gets said in the room.

02

Defensible math

Every price our engine quotes can be traced to its inputs in two clicks. No black-box ML, no "the model said so." If a CFO cannot read the lineage in five minutes, we have failed.

03

Quiet by design

We do not run leaderboards or send "you crushed it" emails. The interface is sober because the work is sober — capital deployed, margin defended, decisions logged.

04

Customers we say no to

If your business model depends on quoting below cost-to-serve, we will not deploy. We are happy to lose a deal — and have — to a competitor whose math will not survive an audit.

05

One product line

We are not a platform that does seven things adequately. We do pricing, quoting, and margin defense for asset-heavy operators — and the next thing we ship will be inside that triangle.

06

Quarterly customer reviews

Every design partner gets a quarterly portfolio review with the founder while we are small — later with a Solutions Architect. We bring the numbers. If the engine has not earned its keep, we say so first — and credit you.

§ Founder

Solo for now. By design.

Allometry is solo-founded by Taylor Gendron. The pre-seed funds the first engineering hire and the second design partner. Token-maxed, not headcount-maxed: 1 founder + a Head of Engineering + an aggressive Claude/Cursor stack ships what used to take six engineers.

The discipline is the strategy. We are not staffing to feel productive. We are shipping the canonical graph to one operator, then to ten, then to a hundred — and each one onboarded sharpens the substrate the rest run on.

If you want to join the conversation as a design partner, a Head of Engineering, or a pre-seed investor — write.
