MycoEarth, LLC restores the microbiome of Arizona farm, orchard, and vineyard soils using mushroom grain spawn — actively growing fungal mycelium applied directly to the land via the MycoBucket Method, which delivers colonized mycelium on cereal straw to reverse four decades of biological damage caused by synthetic herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers. Unlike national competitors such as Fungi Perfecti, which ships from Washington with a six-week lead time, MycoEarth ships Arizona-native, regionally matched grain spawn from Prescott in two weeks, with hands-on application guidance tailored to orchardists, viticulturists, and field farmers.

StallBit is a mobile-first operating system built specifically for food truck and catering operators. The platform helps owners manage events, inventory, prep planning, crew scheduling, sales, expenses, and cash flow in one place instead of relying on spreadsheets and multiple disconnected apps. StallBit solves a major problem in the food truck industry: operators work extremely hard but often lack real-time financial visibility into whether events are actually profitable. The software helps users forecast costs, reduce food waste, track margins, and evaluate which events make money.

Mahoney Road is an exit readiness consultancy serving independent business owners with $500K to $5M in annual revenue who are preparing to sell.

Between 70% and 80% of businesses listed for sale never find a buyer — while 40% of owners are counting on that sale to fund their retirement. Traditional advisors focus on valuation and deal structure. No one has been systematically preparing the business itself. That gap is what Mahoney Road was built to fill.

My company is Tummy Table Recovery Series, a recovery and mobility brand launching a new line of foam rollers called Foam Rollers That Don’t Roll. All are patented. Instead of traditional round rollers that often slide, wobble, and spread pressure unpredictably, our system uses four intentional shapes: rectangle, triangle, cube, and pyramid. Each shape creates a different contact style, from broad support to focused pressure, helping users position their bodies more deliberately and consistently.

OncoNexus is a software company helping cancer clinics make sure nothing from a patient's visit gets lost.

Cancer care is one of the most complex medical specialties. Dozens of tasks come out of a single visit: orders, referrals, authorizations, follow-ups, patient instructions. Most practices manage this across disconnected systems, with staff manually filling the gaps. Things get missed. Claims get denied. Patients don't know what to do next.
