Build in Parallel.
Fail Fast. Double Down.
5D Labs is a startup studio that leverages OpenClaw and autonomous AI agents to validate many ideas simultaneously — transcending the old “pivot or perish” model.
The Startup Studio Model, Reimagined
Traditional startups burn runway trying to find product-market fit with a single idea. We take a different approach.
Parallel Validation
Instead of one bet, we explore multiple ventures simultaneously. OpenClaw and AI agents let us move at startup speed across every idea.
Faster Product-Market Fit
Find what works before the money runs out. Our tooling lets us validate or kill ideas in weeks, not quarters.
AI-Native Infrastructure
Every venture is built with autonomous AI agents from day one. OpenClaw powers the orchestration layer across our entire portfolio.
Our Ventures
From AI engineering platforms to on-chain trading agents — here's what we're building.
CTO
BuildingThe thing to build the thing.
A multi-agent AI engineering platform. Thirteen specialized agents ship complete features — from PRD to production — autonomously on self-healing bare metal infrastructure.
Agentic Trading
BuildingAutonomous agents on-chain.
AI-powered trading agents operating across Solana, Base, and Near. Leveraging autonomous decision-making to navigate DeFi markets with speed and precision.
What's Next?
ExploringAlways building.
The beauty of a startup studio is that we're always exploring. By validating many ideas in parallel, we find what sticks — faster than anyone else.
Building for the New Economy
We believe AI agents and crypto rails are converging into something bigger — an agent economy where software transacts, earns, and operates autonomously on-chain.
Stablecoins & Bitcoin
The foundation of the agent economy. Programmable money that agents can hold, send, and settle — without intermediaries.
Multi-Chain
Solana for speed, Ethereum and Base for composability, Near for AI-native smart contracts. We go where the opportunity is.
The Agent Economy
Agents that don't just write code — they trade, settle payments, and coordinate on-chain. AI and crypto aren't separate bets; they're one thesis.
Built with OpenClaw
OpenClaw is our open-source agent orchestration layer. Self-hosted models, every major provider, and infrastructure we own — optimized for cost, speed, and staying ahead of an industry that moves daily.
Self-Hosted Models
Run open-weight models on our own hardware. Full control over inference, zero vendor lock-in, dramatically lower costs.
Every Major Model
We use them all — frontier and open-weight. Best model for each task, swapped in as new ones drop.
Cost Optimized
Bare metal over cloud. Self-hosted inference over API calls. 60-80% savings on infrastructure without sacrificing performance.
Always Current
New model? Integrated within days. New CLI? Already supported. We move at the speed of the industry — or faster.
Agent Orchestration
Thirteen specialized agents coordinated across development, trading, and operations. Each with its own identity, skills, and tools.
Open at the Core
Key infrastructure and tooling released as open source. We contribute upstream and build on open standards wherever possible.
