RadHash

Go from MVP to Enterprise with the Full-stack Software Builder You Own—Not Rent✨

Startups are shipping faster than ever on AI-assisted, low/no-code scaffolding—then paying a massive “rebuild tax” at scale. Modernization projects routinely cost ~$1.5M and fail at alarming rates, while tech debt diverts 10–20% of new-product budgets and can equal 20–40% of the tech estate’s value. RadHash offers a self-hosted, AI-native foundation that ships ~95% of the repetitive stack and lets builders customize the last 5%, eliminating rebuilds and making scale the default.

👋🏻 Hi, I’m Astor. I stumbled into my purpose back in the early 2000s at a startup that didn’t make it. What stuck wasn’t the failure — it was the obsession with building. Twenty-three years later, that fire is still burning.

Over the last two decades, I’ve shipped hundreds of tools and helped create $6B in market value. Now I’m tackling the most important build of my career: giving non-technical humans the ability to create their own software using simple, intuitive interfaces.

We’ve done the heavy lifting — built the tech, rallied the community, and lined up 200+ founders across 35 countries and 30 industries. Together, they’ve signed $53M in LOIs — not just startups, but established businesses generating revenue and ready to build custom software that meets their unique needs.

We’re raising to fund 21–36 months of operations, bridging to EBITA-positive milestones with projected 68% net profit margins around month 24.

Want to see why this is the best time in history to invest in foundational AI-powered infrastructure?
Book a one-on-one with me and my team.
