We build it, staff it, fund it, spin it out.
NextGen Labs turns ideas — ours and our clients' — into standalone companies. The engineering, the team and the go-to-market capital all come from the studio.
Idea in
Ideas come from our own research and from clients who bring us a problem they'd rather own a product for than rent a vendor.
We build it
Our engineers design, build and ship the product — same US-based team and delivery system we use for client work.
We staff it
We put the operators and engineers in place so the company runs from day one instead of waiting on hiring.
We fund growth
We raise and deploy capital into sales and marketing so a working product becomes a growing one.
Spin out
The company spins out as its own entity — with founding clients and partners holding a stake in what they helped start.
Built in the studio
Lantern Intelligence
AI discovery for search warrants and legal evidence. Lantern turns warrant returns, discovery, transcripts and digital evidence into searchable timelines, entity networks and next-step recommendations — deployable on-prem or in a private cloud, with full chain of custody. Built for law enforcement, prosecutors, federal agencies, corporate security and litigation support.
