Lystio is the next-generation real estate platform for renting and buying – built for the modern user, powered by technology, and designed to simplify the entire process from search to move-in. Let’s face it – real estate today is broken. Outdated platforms charge agents thousands per month with little return. Renters and buyers are stuck with clunky interfaces, confusing processes, and no real support. Meanwhile, billions are pouring into the space through M&A deals, but true innovation is nowhere to be seen. Lystio is changing that. We’re building the first fully digital, end-to-end real estate experience. Schedule viewings with one click – like Treatwell. Submit rental or purchase offers instantly – like on eBay. Rent without a deposit thanks to integrated credit checks and rent guarantee. Buy with full financing visibility, directly in the platform. It’s seamless, fair, and made for how people actually live. The market is massive and heating up fast – but the incumbents are optimizing for exits, not experiences. We’re doing the opposite. Lystio is independent, product-obsessed, and focused on long-term value for users and partners. Our team brings deep startup experience and real track records – from successful exits to leading €100M+ scaleups. Now we’re looking for exceptional engineers, product minds, and data talent to help us build the real estate platform this market has been waiting for.

We're rebuilding financial services marketing and distribution from the ground up. Founded by Gary Cosby after 23 years in corporate retail, OOC Unlimited emerged from a personal mission: families deserve better financial protection guidance through modern marketing and distribution systems.

OUR TECHNOLOGY: • PropHog Integration: AI-powered licensed representative discovery • Proprietary CRM: Complete pipeline automation and SMS campaigns • iDecide Platform: Interactive presentations that actually convert • Virtual Office Environment: Remote-first operations with Zoom automation • 3-3-30 System: Our exclusive 30-day representative success methodology OUR MISSION: Transform financial services from a sales-driven industry into a marketing-driven partnership. Help families protect their future while creating genuine financial independence for our marketing partners. We're at the ground floor of disrupting a $1.3 trillion distribution industry. Join us in building something that actually matters.

ScalingCraft Solutions is a performance-driven growth engine built exclusively for dental practices. We run Google & Meta Ads campaigns that replace the guesswork, hidden fees, and rotating account managers typical of dental marketing agencies with a structured, transparent system that delivers qualified, high-intent patient appointments - not just clicks. Founded by Roshan Bajaj after 15+ years running paid search for dental practices across the US, Canada, and Australia - behind the scenes, for other agencies - ScalingCraft Solutions was built to cut out the middle layer: practices get the same senior-level execution, direct access to the team actually doing the work, and full visibility into every dollar spent. Today we manage $670K+ in monthly ad spend for 130+ dental practices across 20 US states, combining AI-accelerated targeting, daily search-term discipline, and rigorous conversion tracking with a risk-reversed, month-to-month model - free first month, cancel anytime, no long contracts. We're a small, senior team solving one problem exceptionally well: turning ad spend into verified, qualified patients that dental practices can measure to the dollar. If you want focused, outcome-driven work with direct client impact - not busywork buried inside a bloated agency - this is that kind of team.
