a private holding company

acommonlocal creates, acquires, and operates a small number of businesses. We invest in long-term ideas, and where appropriate, partner with outside capital.

We build and operate software businesses focused on research, AI, and internet infrastructure.

approach

Ownership, not allocation

We operate what we hold. A position here is a business we help build and run, not a stake we watch from a distance.

Few, held long

We would rather understand a few businesses completely than twelve partially. Concentration is a choice, not a constraint.

No promotion

We don't publish returns or narrate the work in progress. This page exists to be found by the right people, not to persuade anyone.
