DEVRIM Holdings
The home for the ventures: a small portfolio run by one person, with AI agents doing much of the research, building and monitoring.
Where it stands
The umbrella for the ventures on this page plus the internal tooling used to run them. It is an operating model, not a separate public product.
Checked 5 November 2026, from project records in the site repository, the owner.
Purpose
Hold a handful of useful businesses under one roof, each able to stand on its own.
The problem
One person cannot run several businesses by hand without being consumed by them.
The concept
Delegated operations: software and AI agents carry routine research, building and monitoring; a person approves anything irreversible.
Features
- Agent-run research and monitoring
- Dashboards across ventures
- An approval gate for irreversible actions
- Orchestration of automations
Milestones
- ✓Ventures running under one operating model
Notes
DEVRIM is the umbrella. Each venture underneath it is meant to stand on its own, with software and AI agents carrying as much of the routine work as they reliably can, and a person stepping in where judgment, trust or accountability are needed.
What exists today
A set of working products (listed under Projects), the internal tooling I use to run them, and a lot of lessons about where automation actually holds up and where it quietly fails.
The question it tests
Can one person own a handful of useful businesses without being owned by any of them?
