Seeking a Co-Founder

Every drink
brand deserves
a great CMO.

Terroi is an AI Chief Marketing Officer built for small and medium beverage brands — spirits, wine, craft beer, RTD cocktails, and traditional drinks disrupting the market. Six specialized agents. One mission: surface what's holding your brand back and exactly how to fix it.

The Problem

Great products,
invisible brands.

Thousands of craft distilleries, wineries, and beverage startups make extraordinary products — then market them like it's 2009. They don't have a McKinsey team or a $200K CMO. They have a founder posting on Instagram at midnight.

📉
No competitive intelligence
Small brands have no way to understand how they stack up against competitors on brand, digital, pricing, and share of voice. They're flying blind.
🔍
Reviews left unanalyzed
Hundreds of reviews across Drizly, Total Wine, Google, and Instagram — containing gold for brand strategy — sitting completely unread and unactionable.
🌐
Digital presence is an afterthought
Slow websites, no SEO strategy, missed keywords, and no email automation. Revenue bleeding out through conversion gaps nobody's measured.
🗺️
No roadmap, no prioritization
Founders know something's wrong but don't know what to fix first. Every week they do whatever feels urgent rather than what actually moves the needle.
The Solution

Six agents. One
unfair advantage.

Enter your brand. In minutes, six specialized AI agents run a full marketing intelligence operation — the kind a Series B startup would spend $50K/month on. Then your AI CMO turns it into a personalized strategy, copywriting, and a 90-day roadmap.

Market Opportunity

Grader did it for
restaurants.
We own drinks.

Grader built an AI CMO for the restaurant industry and found product-market fit fast. The beverage sector is the same problem, larger market, and almost entirely untouched by AI marketing intelligence tools.

🧠
Vertical depth compounds over time
Every brand that uses Terroi improves our beverage-specific benchmarks. A general AI will never have category-specific intelligence that knows what a 78% sentiment score means for a small-batch bourbon vs. a natural wine brand.
📊
Proprietary competitive benchmark database
As we onboard brands, we're building the largest dataset of beverage brand health scores, competitor maps, and category benchmarks in the world. This becomes the defensible core of the business.
🔄
Workflow lock-in through the roadmap
When a brand is executing from a Terroi 90-day roadmap and checking progress weekly inside the platform, churning means starting from scratch. The AI CMO becomes their operating system.
🤝
Distribution through distributors and trade
Distributors want their portfolio brands to succeed. A white-label version of Terroi for distributor portfolios creates a B2B2B flywheel — one distributor relationship = 100+ brand users.

Why now.

Three forces are converging that make this the exact right moment to build.

2022–24
LLMs reached marketing-grade quality
Claude, GPT-4, and their successors can now write copy, build strategies, and synthesize intelligence at a level that replaces junior marketing teams. This wasn't true in 2021. It is now.
2023–25
Craft beverage explosion hit a marketing wall
The number of craft distilleries in the US tripled in 5 years. Over 90% of them are bootstrapped and have no marketing department. The product innovation far outpaced the marketing infrastructure to support it.
2024
Grader proved the playbook works for restaurants
Grader launched an AI CMO for restaurants, found PMF, and demonstrated that category-specific AI marketing intelligence has real willingness to pay. Beverages are next — same problem, larger market, zero players.
2025
Agent architectures made multi-step intelligence viable
The agentic AI moment — where multiple specialized models can work in parallel on research, analysis, and strategy — makes a six-agent system like Terroi practical and affordable to run. This is the enabling technology moment.

"Grader is the AI CMO that restaurant owners never could have afforded. We want to do the exact same thing for every beverage brand on the planet."

— The Terroi thesis

AI CMO for beverage brands
The opportunity

Restaurants: ~1M businesses in the US. Craft beverage brands: 94K. Smaller total market, but higher willingness to pay, less competition for the tooling, and a distribution flywheel through distributors, importers, and trade networks.

Let's build
this together.

I'm looking for a technical or GTM co-founder who's excited about the craft beverage space and the AI moment we're in. The platform is built. The thesis is clear. Now we go get our first 100 customers.
