Your business runs on chronos.
Growth happens in kairos.

The Opportune Moment

Nearly every business is being held back by data constraints.

Leadership often knows their business has room for improvement, but operators run on chronos time, and the additional work is too complex or too short-term to justify a full-time hire.

Kairos combines finance, operations, and technical expertise to own these initiatives from scoping through execution — and stays on for the recurring work that follows.

  • Integrations that save hours every week
  • Reports that should exist but don't
  • Systems that finally talk to each other
  • Dashboards leadership keeps asking for

Selected Work

What the work looks like in practice.

A few representative engagements. Full case studies available on request.

$100M+

in SPV device funding, across 1,000+ deals

Equipment Financing & Software

Private · ~$50M revenue

Customer, deal, and billing data lived in separate systems with no shared keys. We stood up the connective infrastructure across CRM, billing, and management systems.

200×

weekly purchasing volume — no added headcount

Wholesale Distribution

Private · ~$50M revenue

A manual research cycle capped how much the team could buy. We built an automated pipeline across APIs, a custom database, and a review layer.

$2M+

per quarter in recovered credits

Logistics (Fortune 500)

Public · >$5B revenue

A dozen+ transportation systems flowed into multiple ERPs and no two numbers agreed. We built the data maps that reconciled the stack into reporting executives could trust.

The Thesis

Your AI strategy starts with your data foundation. Garbage in, garbage out.

Every business is being asked the same question: what's your AI strategy? But AI, analytics, and modern tooling are only as good as the data underneath them, and most businesses can't get accurate insights from their own systems. Data is siloed across platforms, inconsistent between sources, or simply wrong.

Kairos shores up that foundation: we connect siloed systems, clean and structure operational data, and build the reporting layer that turns raw information into decisions.

The businesses that win the next decade won't be the ones moving fastest with AI. They'll be the ones whose data was structured enough to make AI useful.

Areas of Focus

Three pillars. One foundation.

Distinct in scope, often overlapping in execution. Most start in one and grow into the others.

03

Systems, Data & Integration

Connecting the platforms you use, cleaning the data underneath, and laying the foundation that makes AI and analytics actually work.

Doug Terc

Founder & Principal

Doug founded Kairos after years building data infrastructure across mortgage capital markets, CRE lending, logistics, software, and equipment financing — from Fortune 500 logistics and a top-tier investment bank to founder-led, growth-stage businesses. Kairos exists because most companies don't need a strategy deck. They need a senior operator who can translate between business and technical teams, scope the work, and stay long enough to make it stick.
