Back the pilot already moving on the ground.
Stone Locket is building three prototype ADUs in Portland. One is nearing completion. These units will be shown to donors, used to prove the model, and used to launch the first repeatable work cycle.
3
Prototype ADUs
Three units create visible proof and donor-ready demonstrations.
1
Nearing completion
The first prototype is already close enough to anchor donor conversations.
2
Employment lanes
Construction is the first lane. Games and software are the second.
Capital use
What investment unlocks first.
Prototype completion
Finish the first donor-ready unit and keep the next two prototypes moving.
Crew + operations
Support supervision, transport, jobsite systems, and stable working routines.
Donor demonstrations
Use the prototypes to win materials, partnerships, and local support from real walk-throughs.
Software path
Keep the games and software lane active as a second training and output channel.
01
Visible proof
Investors are not being asked to imagine a first phase. The prototypes make the first phase visible.
02
Founder-led execution
The founder’s BS and MS in computer science add technical credibility to the training and software side.
03
Two-lane model
The pilot does not stop at construction. It opens a second path into games and software work.
Simple milestones, not inflated promises.
- finish the donor-ready first prototype ADU
- use prototype walk-throughs to bring in more partners and donors
- advance prototypes two and three into active build stages
- keep the software path visible with upcoming game prototypes
They answer a real investor question.
The software path matters because some workers will fit better in technical production than long-term construction. Keeping that path visible makes the employment model stronger, not more confusing.
Next step
Back one concrete pilot, not a vague future promise.
Detailed budget, milestone scheduling, and donor demonstration plans can be shared directly in conversation.
