What we do Differently
Impact to us means social and financial. Our OKRs are Speed to Impact and Investor ROI. We focus on the inevitable - paradigm shifts. We surround big problems with experts, then validate, launch and blitzscale solutions by investing our team and capital.
Outcomes Northstar
Everything we do is focused on the desired outcome. Speed to Impact and Investor ROI are our OKRs. To achieve these OKRs we apply a SaaS lens to investing knowing that the most immediately impactful and scalable solutions are those that provide value from user 1 to user N.
PSF Validation
We never guess. Our 3 step process validates market timing for paradigm shifts and our ability to force that timing. (1st) we filter solutions via our councils, (2nd) we validate solutions by mirroring live product customer acquisition programs, (3rd) we execute (now), pause (later), kill (never).
Operational Investing
We invest people (and capital) on a performance basis. We invest our team of serial operators with diverse backgrounds and networks to fill gaps in product, marketing, sales, BI, customer success, and engineering. We invest our experts, network and capital to drive escape velocity growth.
These are a few of the companies our founders invested in or worked with or for as employees or consultants. These companies are not investors or partners of Break the Wheel.
A History of Success
Break the Wheel was founded and is operated by serial entrepreneurs and operators that have built, sold and taken public more than 20 companies.

How it works
We never guess. Our 3 step process validates market timing for paradigm shifts and our ability to force that timing. (1st) we filter solutions via our councils, (2nd) we validate solutions by mirroring live product customer acquisition programs, (3rd) we execute (now), pause (later), kill (never).
Solution - Problem Fit
Our first step is running all ideas from the council through our filter of suitability, timing, and expected outcomes.
Solution - Market Fit
For the ideas that make it through funnel 1 we run a market validation test that mirrors a commercialized product to understand true market demand and unit economics.
Commercialize & Scale
For the solutions that make it through funnel 2 we commercialize and blitzscale the market.
Whats in it for you
This isn't a volunteer program. Council members receive shares in and free product access to every solution generated. It isn't easy to get on these councils, we want people engaged, excited, ready to help build an idea into a market leader. We won't accept anyone showing up for the free pizza.

Problem
With the current rate of climate change and the sloth of proposed solutions the damage will be irreversible. Solutions must be faster to market and scale without requiring government or corporate approvals.
Goal
Reduce fossil fuel consumption for energy production by 50% by 2030.

The Wealth Gap creates inequality in health, education, opportunity, civil rights and human rights. The Wealth Gap can only be bridged through equal access to quality education, unbiased - equal opportunity, and a commitment to fair lending and captable diversity.
Goal
Create 100 million new millionaires (Women, Black and Brown).
