We build small teams
that win with AI.
Layer Group is an AI-native holding company. We build small, sharp teams that use artificial intelligence to run businesses far leaner than the incumbents they compete with — across software, manufacturing, and real assets.
A holding company built for the AI era.
Most companies are bolting AI onto org charts designed for a slower world. We start the other way around — tiny teams, AI at the core, and businesses chosen because leverage compounds.
Incubate
We start with a wedge: a real, expensive problem and an AI-shaped way to solve it. We prototype fast, validate with real buyers, and stand the company up with the smallest team that can win.
Finance
We fund our companies directly and structure acquisitions of profitable operators. Patient capital, sensible leverage, and a bias toward durable cash flow over hype.
Scale
We embed AI into the core of every operation — sales, support, design, ops — so a team of ten can deliver what once took a hundred. Shared infrastructure, repeatable playbooks.
Ventures we're building & running.
MPowr Products
Architectural door hardware.
Maker of the MP-800 light-duty door closer and related hardware. A classic, cash-generative manufacturing business modernized with AI-assisted marketing, e-commerce, and customer support.
CAHOME
Homeownership for the missing middle.
Canada Affordable Home Ownership Made Easy — a shared-equity model that lets buyers into the market with as little as 5% down. Built to close the gap for households earning too much for subsidies but too little for today's prices.
Resilient Building Solutions
Climate-resilient modular construction.
A Canadian modular-construction integrator specializing in steel-framed structures for remote and demanding locations, using 2D cassettes and 3D volumetric frames to build faster, stronger, and with less waste.
We put AI to work inside your company.
We don't sell decks. We run six AI-native businesses ourselves — so we know what actually ships, what saves money, and what's theatre. We bring that operating experience into your company and leave you with systems your team can run.
AI Opportunity Audit
We map your workflows end-to-end and find the highest-ROI places to apply AI — with a costed, prioritized roadmap, not a wish list.
Build & Integrate
Custom assistants, agents, and automations wired into the tools you already use — CRM, ERP, support, docs — and shipped to production.
Process Automation
We replace repetitive, expensive manual work — quoting, intake, data entry, reporting — with reliable AI pipelines that have humans in the loop where it matters.
Team Enablement
We train your people to use AI well and set the guardrails — security, governance, and quality — so adoption sticks after we leave.
Let's build something leaner.
Whether you're an operator with a business to transform, a founder with a wedge, or an investor — we'd like to hear from you.
