​About TRAMLINES

​A fund and 24 month accelerator Industrialising Intelligence through AI. Tramlines backs teams with years of domain expertise on the thesis that in a world where software is cheap, context is the moat.

​We run a 24-month accelerator focused on building Minimum Viable Businesses: profitable cores, real customers early, and clear unit economics. We are structured differently, targeting exits across the portfolio and designing incentives that make sense for experienced operators. We are not anti‑unicorn. We are anti‑fragility.
