Your Unfair Advantage

The world's most well-connected company, consistently making high-impact connections.

What we do

We make organic connections, and help you get in the room with the right people.


Say goodbye to SaaS, bots, and bloated teams.

Your next 10x unlock is buried somewhere in a spreadsheet, inbox, CRM, contact list, or LinkedIn connection. The problem is your network data is fragmented, strategic insights are nonexistent, and leveraging human capital is slow and unscalable.

Ascendancy maps and nurtures global networks, offers strategic guidance on what opportunities to consider, provides deep intel on people in your network, and then makes warm introductions to the right person, in the right way, at the right time.

how we do it

Speed. Precision. Warmth.

Ascendancy offers the best combination of white-glove services and AI-solutions.

Ascendancy diagnoses growth problems with an integrated Client Strategist (think xMBB or exited Founder) and solves them with the right blend of AI and human execution.

Ascendancy is constantly cultivating high-trust relationships on the front end and on the back end we're implementing AI to maintain data on key contacts in your network, enrich with public and private data, and pattern match with your goals.

From a pricing perspective, our pricing starts with a low retainer and our upside hinges on incentive aligned outcomes. We win if we can expand and leverage your network.

You win. Your network wins. Your business wins. We win. 

We call this Winfinity.

Comprehensive solution

Relationship Growth Ecosystem.

Strategic Advising

Ascendancy launches each client engagement with a high-energy Strategy Lab to create clarity that drives action. This Lab will be led by an Ascendancy Client Strategist who will take the learnings from that experience to build a SNAP (Strategic Network Action Plan). The Lab will surface problems and opportunities while the SNAP shows how, why, when, and where Ascendancy will take action to leverage your network and ours.

Warm Intros + Deep Intel

Ascendancy ingests your network data, runs targeted AI queries over it, creates short-lists of high-impact connection opportunities, gives you deep intel on those people and companies, and finds warm intros to ensure the highest probability of connection. These warm introductions can be made for any number of opportunities or problems you need to action: B2B sales, executive hiring, fundraising, PR, and so on.  

Network Management

Ascendancy has deep relationships with operators, investors, founders, and leaders world-wide. Each Ascendancy client adds their connections to this network and benefits by accessing the existing network. We have invite-only geography based communities and virtual interest groups. Ascendancy will give you access to these groups and nurture your existing network with curated in-person dinners, events, and gatherings.

The best of AI.

In a world where AI is transforming daily life, Ascendancy is at the forefront of deploying and building the best AI Networking tools to back our work. Because we align long-term incentives and aren't operating a SaaS growth model, we're able to build intentionally while simultaneously tapping into the leading AI tools in the market.

The best part? All of this is behind the scenes. You just get results.  

Testimonials

Not a product. A paradigm shift.

As a CEO - particularly as a founder navigating the early stages of company building - the journey can often be isolating and complex. Ascendancy has proven to be an invaluable partner in that journey."

Working with Ascendency has been one of the most valuable strategic decisions we’ve made at Gratia. They helped us find our lead investor, which was a pivotal moment for us. Since then, their ongoing support has extended far beyond fundraising. What I appreciate most is that their approach isn’t transactional—they show up like a true partner, constantly thinking about how to add value and evolve with us as our needs change."

The team has built deep trust across a wide range of stakeholders, including investors, founders, advisors, and allies. What stood out was their thoughtful presence, steady and grounded in genuine commitment."

Ascendancy is my go-to concierge connector. Since we started working together, they've teed me up with organic connections to leaders all over the world (including some our top clients!), run our annual general meeting, and helped me activate our network of advisors, investors, and allies. Big fan!"

We’re with you all the way.

Ascendancy's primary pricing model involves a variable equity or carry stake tied directly to the milestones you’ve set for your business (revenue, EV, IRR, etc.). Equity ranges depending on the size and trajectory of your company. If equity or carry is not feasible, we work with you to establish other results-based incentives. Our goal is full alignment, ensuring we’re maximally incentivized to generate alpha for your business.
