What becomes possible with a team of three?
Much of the debate about AI at work asks which jobs will disappear. At The Shipyard we’re interested in a different economic question: what can two or three people now bring into existence that previously required a department? In a field study of customer support, access to an AI assistant increased issues resolved per hour by 15% on average. That is a meaningful change in what a team can do. It is not a measure of whether a new business can win a customer.
I founded The Shipyard with the ambition of helping a million entrepreneurs build, launch and run businesses. We test tools in ventures of our own, measuring the time to a first release alongside the harder outcomes: who pays, who returns, and what it costs to reach them. We’re hiring and building a network of partners who want to put those tools in the hands of small teams.
