Zero‑upfront acceleration
We underwrite and finance the build. You pay a predictable license + management fee only after acceptance and go‑live.
Technology Accelerator · No equity · No upfront cost · 24‑month lock‑in
End-to-End Technology Acceleration — Build, Deploy, Train, Staff
Spes Capital is a technology accelerator: we design, build, and operate production-ready solutions that fuse modern stacks with legacy systems. For pre-qualified clients, we pre-fund the complete stack—software, infrastructure, integrations, and operational staffing—so you launch with low upfront cost. Leveraging proprietary IP and pre-built components, we deliver rapid, customized deployments, each engagement is anchored to jointly defined KPIs that align scope, timelines, and outcomes.
No equity, no lockouts
We don’t take equity. Our IP remains ours, but your data and tenant stay yours. We also design a clear path to your in‑house replacement if/when you out‑scale the model.
Outcome‑driven contracts
Engagements are tied to measurable KPIs (latency, uptime, onboarding speed, integration throughput, quality/error budgets).
Operating model
We operate as a single point of management across design, engineering, cloud operations, and vendor orchestration. Our portfolio of reusable components accelerates delivery while preserving your control plane and governance.
- Financing: non‑recourse investment by Spes Capital into the initial build and pilot; costs are recovered through licensing and management fees post‑acceptance.
- Term: standard 24‑month lock‑in for use of our IP; client may build an internal replacement in parallel and migrate at term subject to off‑boarding plan.
- Ownership: Spes Capital retains IP in accelerators/blueprints; client retains ownership of data, configuration, and any bespoke client‑only artifacts agreed in SOW.
- Two models: (1) Acceleration as a Service (financed build + run), (2) Ad‑hoc Consulting (innovation labs, architecture, audits, training).
What we build
Our current specialization is financial‑services technology: secure API connectivity, orchestration, compliance tooling, and AI‑assisted operations—delivered as production systems with documentation and training.
API connectivity & integration

Data & AI enablement
- Event‑driven ingestion (CDC, streaming) and ELT
- Model feature stores and evaluation harnesses
- Responsible‑AI guardrails, content safety
- Human‑in‑the‑loop tooling for ops & QA
Compliance tooling & auditability
- Automated KYC/AML vendor integrations
- Policy‑as‑code, approval workflows, maker‑checker
- Immutable audit trails, exception handling
- Data residency, retention & lineage catalogs
Secure cloud foundations
- Zero‑trust posture; least‑privilege IAM
- Secrets management & HSM/KMS integration
- Infrastructure as Code with drift detection
- Backup, disaster recovery, and chaos testing
Observability & SRE
- OpenTelemetry traces, metrics, logs
- SLOs, error budgets, progressive delivery
- Incident management, runbooks, post‑mortems
- Capacity planning & cost governance
Managed operations, staffing & training
- 24×7 coverage options and on‑call rotations
- Regulated‑industry onboarding & documentation
- Client enablement: playbooks, labs, knowledge base
- Co‑sourced teams with clear RACI
Our process
1
Intake (RFI)
30–45 min executive call to align on objectives, constraints, data residency, and risk appetite.
2
Discovery sprint (2–3 weeks)
Asset inventory, architecture & controls review, and a low‑fidelity solution concept with KPI targets and TCO model.
3
Investment committee
We assess strategic fit and financing exposure. If accepted, we issue a non‑recourse term sheet and draft SOW.
4
Build (6–12 weeks typical)
Parallel workstreams: infrastructure as code, integration, data & AI, controls, and runbooks. Weekly steering.
5
Pilot & acceptance
Security testing, performance validation, and user acceptance. KPIs baselined and SLAs agreed for go‑live.
6
Operate & improve
24‑month managed run with SLOs, cost reviews, roadmap delivery, and optional in‑house transition plan.
How we select projects
Because we finance the initial build, we are selective. We partner where we can deliver outsized impact quickly and operate responsibly under your governance model.
- Clear regulatory posture and executive sponsorship
- Defined commercial model with line‑of‑business ownership
- Access to required data sources and test environments
- Ability to host in client tenant or dedicated segregated tenant
- Decision‑maker availability for weekly steering and acceptance
- KPI targets tied to business value (revenue, cost, risk)
KPI & SLA framework
Every SOW defines acceptance KPIs and run‑time SLAs, measured with independent telemetry and reported in shared dashboards.
Reliability
- SLOs & error budgets
- Multi‑AZ/region patterns
- Disaster recovery RTO/RPO
Performance
- p95 latency & throughput
- Autoscaling policies
- Load & soak testing
Security
- Least‑privilege IAM
- Secrets rotation
- SBOM and dependency hygiene
Compliance
- Change control & approvals
- Audit events & lineage
- Retention & residency
Cost
- Unit economics dashboards
- FinOps guardrails
- Capacity planning
Quality
- Defect density & MTTR
- Observability coverage
- Release health
Security architecture
- Zero‑trust access patterns with continuous verification (aligned to NIST SP 800‑207).
- Shift‑left security and OWASP ASVS‑aligned control requirements.
- Segregated environments, network micro‑segmentation, and least‑privilege IAM.
- Strong cryptography (TLS 1.2+/1.3, optional mTLS), HSM/KMS‑backed key management.
API & identity standards
- OpenAPI 3.1 contracts with versioning, linting, and code‑gen pipelines.
- OAuth 2.1 / OIDC for delegated access; fine‑grained scopes and consent.
- mTLS, confidential clients, JWK rotation strategies.
Operations & observability
- OpenTelemetry for traces, metrics, and logs with vendor‑neutral exporters.
- Automated deploys (CI/CD), immutable builds, SBOMs, progressive delivery.
- Incident response playbooks, post‑incident reviews, and continuous hardening.
Governance
- Controls mapped to SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria; CIS Controls v8 prioritized safeguards.
- Cloud design aligned with well‑architected pillars: security, reliability, performance, cost.
- Data ownership stays with client; Spes Capital acts as a technology and managed‑operations provider only.

FAQs
Do you take equity?
No. We do not take equity. Our financing is non‑recourse to you and is repaid through license + management fees after acceptance.
Who owns the IP?
Spes Capital retains IP in our accelerators/blueprints. Your data and tenant are always yours, and we design a clean off‑boarding path.
Is there a lock‑in?
Yes. Our standard term is a 24‑month lock‑in for use of our IP. We’ll help you transition to an in‑house build if needed at/after term.
Where is it hosted?
Preferably in your cloud tenant; otherwise, a segregated dedicated tenant with strict controls and data residency options.
What industries do you focus on?
Primarily financial‑services technology (connectivity, orchestration, compliance tooling, AI‑assisted operations).
