Everything looks different from the inside.
AI platform shifts are redefining every market. Align Growth Global (AGG) gives Venture Capital Firms and their B2B Technology Portfolio Companies the intelligence to anticipate change and the strategy to act on it.
Built from the inside. Deployed for what's next.
Every major platform transition creates advantage for those who move with clarity rather than reaction. The AI era is the biggest and fastest replatforming shift in a generation and most companies are navigating it without the intelligence to see what’s coming. AGG is a Platform Intelligence Advisory helping Venture Capital firms and the B2B Technology Companies they back, navigate that shift.
Built by operators who made platform decisions from the inside, AGG is founded by a team that has lived through multiple platform transitions - at Microsoft, Red Hat, and across the ecosystems built around them.
We surface what is actually limiting growth, shape strategy from that clarity and execute across teams, platforms, and partnerships. What we build is defensible, measurable, and resilient to market shifts and grounded in platform‑insider intelligence.
AI replatforming is forcing a portfolio‑level reckoning. Platform exposure builds silently across a portfolio. Without platform‑insider diagnostics, funds misread structural risk as execution failure. LP (Limited Partners) scrutiny is rising as pressure from investors to deliver stronger returns increases. AGG provides the diagnostic foundation to assess portfolio positioning against the platform intelligence economy, before the questions get harder to answer.
Growing companies develop blindspots. Every new leader quietly reshapes go-to-market, fragmenting alignment between strategy, execution and institutional knowledge. Current revenue masks the cracks because platform shifts don’t show up in financial metrics until the impact has already taken hold. AGG surfaces what's limiting growth and orchestrates the execution to fix it, ensuring your strategy, product, and ecosystem position are aligned with where the platforms are moving next.
We live our name: Align Growth Global.
Three words. Three things every engagement produces.
Alignment. Compounding growth. Global reach.
Three former teammates. One shared operating DNA.
Neela, Mike, and Will built and scaled billion-dollar platform ecosystems together at Red Hat. AGG exists because the platform intelligence capability their clients needed did not exist - so they built it.
Why we see what others miss.
We didn't watch these shifts happen. We built the programs and ecosystems that enabled developers, startups, and customers to navigate them - MSDN, the Microsoft Global Partner Network, Red Hat Partner Connect.
Platform absorption, ecosystem positioning, community dynamics, platform-aligned distribution. These patterns recur across every transition. We have seen which strategies survive, which get absorbed, and which become acquisition targets - before the market makes it obvious.
We made build-vs-partner decisions at Microsoft and Red Hat. We know how hyperscalers and AI platforms evaluate those same choices today - what to absorb, who to partner with, and what to leave to the ecosystem. That is not research. It is operating memory.
"Platform transitions never announce themselves. They build in the background - in pricing pressure you can’t justify, in partners going quiet, in churn you can’t diagnose - until the inflection point makes the shift impossible to ignore. And by then, the repositioning window is already closing."
Commitments that show up in every engagement, not just the pitch.
These aren't values statements. They are the standards we hold every engagement to.
The market has options.
Most of them solve half the problem.
