Independent research and venture development.

dsa.ai is a privately funded research and development studio focused on applied machine learning, quantitative engineering, and advanced computational systems.

Our work centers on internal research, experimental product development, and early-stage incubation, not client projects.

About Image
  • In-house research and technical development
  • Focus on applied computation and data systems
  • Selective collaboration within aligned technical fields
  • Long-term perspective over short release cycles

Core Focus Areas

Independent research and development spanning applied machine learning, quantitative systems, automation, and early-stage technology incubation.

How We Operate

dsa is an independent research and venture studio exploring ideas in machine learning, quantitative systems, and automation. Most of our work happens quietly and over time. We focus on building and backing projects that demonstrate real technical depth and long-term value.

Icon

Research-Driven

Each project begins with exploration, data analysis, and early technical modeling before development resources are committed.

Icon

Focused Development

We build, test, and refine internally to validate technical soundness and long-term stability before advancing to larger-scale development.

Icon

Selective Funding

We allocate capital and resources only to ventures that align with our internal research direction and long-term philosophy.

Why Choose Image

“We build and support projects that make sense to us, focusing on systems, tools, and ideas with real technical value. When the vision aligns, we’re open to working with founders and teams who share the same long-term mindset.”

Chris DeRiseis, Founder

Our Research & Development Process

Our work follows a focused, research-led process. Each project starts with data exploration and technical modeling, followed by internal prototyping and validation. Once performance and reliability are proven, systems move toward integration and long-term operation.

Our process applies across both digital and physical ventures, from quantitative systems and automation to product design, hardware, and early-stage manufacturing.
