— The AI Operating Partner · for the PE hold period

The AI Operating Partner for the PE hold period. Priced to your cash flow.

We deploy AI-augmented LATAM operators into PE portfolio companies. For roles where a US hire is replaced, the portco saves more than it pays us from month one. For growth roles, we deliver 1.5–2× the throughput of a US hire at 50–60% of US loaded cost.

01 · The mechanic

We charge against your savings. Not in addition to them.

The math below applies to a single senior engineering seat under our Cash-Flow-Aligned Permanent Placement. If the math doesn't work from month one, the engagement doesn't start.

A · Status quo
$12K
/ month · US senior engineer, loaded
$144K annualized. Fully-loaded cost of a US hire — salary, benefits, taxes, equipment, overhead. The baseline the portco pays today.
B · Under Accrety
$7.5K
/ month · LATAM seat + Accrety retainer
$5K LATAM loaded cost + $2.5K Accrety retainer. Retainer ends month 12. The portco owns the hire outright.
C · Client net savings
+$4.5K
/ month · from day one
$54K year-one net savings per replaced seat. $90K recurring every year after the retainer ends.

Five engagements. One pricing philosophy.

Wedge-first order. Most portcos enter through the Portfolio Audit or the Cash-Flow-Aligned Permanent Placement. See the full methodology →

Portfolio Talent + AI Audit.

We map one portfolio company's current labor structure, identify the roles where AI-augmented LATAM talent can replace or augment US spend, and deliver a quantified savings projection with a month-by-month cash-flow model. Standalone deliverable — you own it whether or not we work together afterward. If we proceed to deployment, the fee rolls into the first engagement.

Cash-Flow-Aligned Permanent Placement.

We source and place permanent LATAM hires directly onto the portco's payroll. Twelve-month retainer structured so that monthly savings (US-equivalent loaded cost minus LATAM loaded cost minus retainer) is always positive from month one. After month twelve, the retainer ends and the portco owns the hire outright. 90-day replacement guarantee.

Engagement 02

AI-Augmented Staffing Augmentation.

Nearshore contractor teams deployed with an AI productivity layer per seat. Two sub-models based on role type — we only claim throughput multipliers where they can be rigorously measured.

Sub-model A · AI-integrated roles

Throughput Multiplier Pricing.

1.5–2× documented throughput of a US hire at 50–60% of US loaded cost. Monthly throughput reporting included.

Seat fee at a defined markup on LATAM loaded cost with a throughput guarantee stated in contract. If monthly throughput drops below threshold for two consecutive months, a pro-rata fee adjustment applies.

Examples · Software engineering (Cursor, Copilot, AI-reviewed PRs) · Support with AI deflection · SDR/BDR on AI outbound platforms · Data analysis with AI-assisted tooling.
Sub-model B · AI-adjacent roles

Productivity-Guaranteed Cost-Plus.

US-caliber performance at 50–60% of US loaded cost. Replacement guarantee, productivity check-ins at 30 / 60 / 90 days.

Standard cost-plus markup on LATAM loaded cost. The differentiator is the AI productivity tooling bundled with every seat plus the replacement guarantee — not a throughput claim we can't prove.

Examples · Financial analysts · Product managers · Operations managers · Generalist analyst roles.
Engagement 03

90-Day AI EBITDA Sprint.

Surgical single-use-case deployments — support deflection, SDR automation, F&A close acceleration. Fixed fee plus optional success fee on documented year-one EBITDA impact.

Engagement 04

AI + Workforce Redesign Diagnostic.

A 4–6 week baseline of the portco's labor structure. Target-state design, EBITDA quantified in points, and an implementation plan that feeds directly into placement and staff-aug engagements.

— Why Accrety exists

Three observations. One firm.

A compact version of the founding thesis. The full essay arrives with the expanded About page in the second release.

Accrety was built from three observations that rarely sit together in one line of sight.

PE firms are under growing pressure to produce operational EBITDA growth inside extended hold periods, and labor cost is where the largest addressable pool sits. AI has matured to the point where a competent operator with the right tools can reliably do the work of two or three. And Latin America now produces a generation of operators and engineers who are structurally more AI-native than most of their US counterparts, at roughly 40–60% of the loaded cost.

The synthesis is inescapable. PE portfolios need a role that combines strategic altitude, AI fluency, and real delivery of capacity. Accrety exists to occupy that role. Not with decks. With humans and AI working together, paid from the savings they generate.

— Institutional rigor

How we stay operational at scale.

A firm built to operate as an institutional partner across the hold period — not as a founder-dependent project shop.

Accrety operates as a founder-led firm with deliberately built operational scaffolding. A Head of Delivery leads engagement execution across portfolio companies. Our operating procedures — for sourcing, onboarding, productivity measurement, replacement guarantees, and portfolio-level reporting — are documented and continuously refined as we deploy across funds. Continuity arrangements ensure that client engagements are covered independent of any single point of failure.

As engagements scale across a fund's portfolio, our delivery team scales proportionally. We grow operational capacity on a timeline calibrated to engagement volume, not headcount vanity metrics. Every seat deployed through Accrety is covered by documented delivery standards and monthly reporting artifacts that the Operating Partner can include in quarterly fund reviews without additional work.

The firm is built to operate as an institutional partner across the hold period, not as a founder-dependent project shop.

03 · The fund-level math

Ten portcos. Five seats each. One page of math.

The baseline calculation we walk into every IC conversation with. Full model, inputs, and sensitivities on the Operating Partners page.

— Illustrative fund-level math. Assumes a 10-portco fund at $50M ARR average, 5 replaceable US roles per portco at $12K/month loaded, LATAM equivalent at $5K/month, Accrety retainer at $2.5K/seat/month in year one. Actual results depend on portco fit and role inventory.

What we'll publish — when we can.

Our first case studies publish as engagements close. Accrety launched in May 2026, and we are committed to publishing documented, attributable results rather than illustrative placeholders.
