Surfaces
Where your firm's work lives today
Your team's work is scattered across accumulated tools. They are not going away, but their residue — half-decisions and side comments — becomes a source the system can learn from.

How it works
The shape of a firm
Every firm has the same five layers to its inner workings. Going AI-native is the work of making them visible, connected, and durable — so the firm can rely on its own institutional memory the way it relies on its people.
Surfaces
Where your firm's work lives today
Your team's work is scattered across accumulated tools. They are not going away, but their residue — half-decisions and side comments — becomes a source the system can learn from.
Workflows
How work turns into judgment
Most capability lives in people. Judgment builds over years and gets applied in undocumented moments. Workflows make it visible: the steps, handoffs, and deliverables where tacit knowledge gets reused.
Knowledge base
What the firm knows and believes
A firm knows things its documents don't. The knowledge base models who knows what, why decisions were made, which precedents hold, and which were quietly overturned.
System of record
The attested activity log
History is scattered across inboxes, drives, and memory. The record logs every model version, decision, approval, and override, traced back to its evidence.
The Practice
The operating layer that keeps it alive
A memory layer is not a finished project. It is a weekly rhythm: review what was captured, attest what still holds, retire what went stale, and feed new evidence back in. The practice is what makes memory compound instead of decay.
Selected Engagements
Outcomes with a record underneath
Managing Director
Global Multi-Strategy Trading Firm
Mythmaker takes their proprietary models, adapts them to your firm, and runs the operations. They baseline everything, build a systematic process, set a target, and let you layer in around it. It's a great approach — and others are starting to pick up on it.
Managing Partner
Global Capital Markets Advisory Firm
We've had nothing but a positive experience — in fact, some of our own clients have ended up engaging Mythmaker directly. They've been the secret sauce in getting us from ideas in our heads to actually executing, and doing it right.
Chief Executive Officer
CFTC-Regulated Derivatives Exchange
Mythmaker is wildly capable on AI and process improvement. They're core to the team that's going to get things done over the next year. The tools and workflows they bring are an accelerant — operational velocity and technology you can really leverage.
Chief Information Officer
Institutional Trading Technology Firm
The Mythmaker team comes from a technical background, which is exactly what's needed — deep understanding without over-formalizing the process. The combination of their experience and approach is what made our project a success.
Chief Executive Officer
Institutional Trading Technology Firm
Within the first month, I saw a real change in character across the team — more collaboration, better structure, sharper response times. What stood out about Mythmaker was their read on the situation. They helped us surface and work through structural issues we'd been wrestling with for years, and build the foundation we need to support growth.
Chief Executive Officer
Quantitative Research Firm
Mythmaker came in with no context and inside two weeks delivered a strategy and operations memo that was genuinely impressive — spot on in places where I'd been thinking the same thing but hadn't put it down. They bring experience you can really respect.
The playbook
Three stages, each enterable and exitable
I
Diagnostic
A structured assessment of where your firm's judgment currently lives, what is leaking, and what would compound if captured. Delivered as a written strategy and operations memo with a recommended scope of work.
Four weeks. No commitment to what comes next.
II
Build
We build the institutional memory layer against the priorities the diagnostic surfaced. Our deliverable is a working system fully integrated in your firm and an embedded team to guarantee realized value.
Eight to twelve weeks. Scoped to the diagnostic findings.
III
Steward
We maintain the system as a continuing part of your firm that compounds value. The monthly cadence of reviews, audits, and expansions that keeps institutional memory from decaying back into individual memory.
Month-to-month.
