One broker.
The reach of a trading floor.
You already know the trade. What you do not have is forty people to find the counterparty, write to them properly, remember to write again, and keep every conversation moving at once. Log in and you do.
No card. No call with a salesperson. You are inside in under a minute.
Every contact is an individual with a title and the authority to say yes.
If a detail cannot be tied back to something publicly checkable, you do not receive it.
Every conversation is picked back up on a fixed cadence until it resolves.
From the first message to a meeting in the diary, without you chasing it.
The work that pays is not the work that fills your day.
Ask any broker where the week went. Almost none of it went on the trade.
- Finding the right person
- Switchboards, gatekeepers, generic enquiry inboxes and a company website that names nobody below the board. Hours, for one name that may not even be the right one.
- Knowing whether they are live
- A counterparty who was buying in March may be done for the year. A list tells you they exist; it does not tell you they are in the market this week.
- Writing properly, every time
- The approach that gets answered reads like it came from somebody with fifteen years behind them. Writing forty of those by hand is a full-time job on its own.
- Remembering to write again
- The second and third approaches are where the business is. They are also the first thing to be forgotten when a live deal is in front of you.
- Holding ten threads at once
- Each conversation is at a different point. Keeping all of them warm is precisely the thing one person cannot do.
A book you could act on this morning.
Not a database. A short list of people worth writing to, and the conversations already underway.
People, graded
Each name carries a clear read on how dependable the detail is, how live the requirement looks, and whether this is somebody who actually works through brokers. The weak ones never reach you.
Written the way the trade is written
Corporate, unhurried, specific. The register of an advisor with fifteen years of cargoes behind them, not a template with your name dropped in.
Picked up every two days
Until they reply, or until it is clear they will not. The part of the job everyone agrees matters and nobody has time for.
Every thread in one place
Inbound and outbound together. Reply from inside and it leaves as email. Attach a file of any size, or a whole folder.
Instruments, drawn properly
The documents the trade runs on, produced from reviewed wording rather than improvised, and tracked through to signature.
Nothing happens unexplained
Every figure can be accounted for and every message can be found. Months later, you can still show how a number was arrived at.
From a name to a meeting, without you in the middle.
You set the brief. The rest runs, and you step in where your judgement is worth something.
- 01
You say what you want
The product, the side, the part of the world. One sentence is enough to start.
- 02
The right people surface
Named individuals with a current requirement, each with a clear read on how much weight the detail will carry.
- 03
The approach goes out
Properly written, from your desk, in your name. Nothing about it reads like a campaign.
- 04
It is followed through
Every two days, until there is an answer. Replies are read and the thread moves on from there.
- 05
The meeting is set
A time in the diary with somebody who can commit, and the thread behind it if you want to read back.
- 06
You take it from there
Or let it keep running: terms, paperwork and settlement can all stay inside the limits you set.
Work ten markets at once. Never the same buyer twice.
- Each slice of the market is worked separately and simultaneously
- No two can reach the same counterparty — not by policy, by construction
- Widen your coverage and you widen your reach, not your duplication
- Everything stays attributable: you can always see which part of the book produced what
We would rather hand you less.
- Only business detail that traces to a publicly checkable source
- Nothing private, nothing scraped, nothing guessed
- What cannot be stood behind is left out, not filled in
- A blank is a blank — never a plausible-looking placeholder
- Anyone who asks to be left alone is left alone, permanently and immediately
What brokers use now, and what it costs them.
Three honest comparisons. None of them is a straw man — brokers close business on all of them.

A broker is paid for judgement, relationships and nerve. Everything else is administration pretending to be work.
The position we take
Autonomy with your hand on the dial.
- You state in advance what may be agreed, and inside what bounds
- Above those bounds it stops and comes to you
- One switch halts everything, immediately, with nothing lost
- Every action taken on your behalf is on the record, attributable and reversible in the telling
What brokers ask before they log in.
Do the messages go out in my name?
Yes. It is your desk, your name and your reputation on every approach, which is exactly why the standard for what goes out is set where it is.
Will it contact somebody I am already working?
No. A counterparty belongs to one part of your book and cannot be reached from another. Nobody receives two approaches from you about the same cargo.
What happens when somebody replies?
It is read, the thread moves on accordingly, and it lands in one inbox alongside everything else. You can take over mid-conversation whenever you want to.
Can I see why a name was put in front of me?
Yes, for every name, including what could not be confirmed. If that reading does not convince you, the name should not convince you either.
Can I take my book with me?
Always. The full book exports as a spreadsheet, and in document form on request. It is your book.
What does it cost me to find out?
A minute. Logging in needs no card and no call, and you will see the real thing rather than a tour of it.
The counterparty you want is in the market this week.
Log in and find out who. It takes a minute, costs nothing, and you will be looking at the real book rather than a demonstration of one.
