The Studio

Eido Studios is a product-driven venture studio founded by entrepreneurs with a proven track record. We invest in remarkable founders and launch our own companies in areas we're deeply passionate about.

Our Approach

We invest meaningful capital into a few carefully selected opportunities each year, enabling deep focus and hands-on support. Our approach provides each company with substantial strategic guidance, operational expertise, and access to exceptional talent and resources to accelerate their success.

The studio was founded by entrepreneurs Darrius Thompson, Blake Machado, and Adrian Bourke, who have built and scaled multiple venture-backed companies.

Our Companies

Promissory

The Fintech platform that helps founders, employees, and investors with advanced QSBS trust strategies.

Founded by Brian Lamb and Eric Urhausen.

Why we Invested

We backed Brian and Eric for their proven ability to simplify complex financial products at their prior company, Trust & Will. Promissory applies that expertise to an overlooked but critical part of financial planning: helping startup founders, employees, and investors maximize their equity outcomes.

Mythic Tools

A popular, all-in-one utility app for the trading card game Magic: The Gathering.

Founded by Damien Chavarria and John Chavarria.

Why we Invested

We backed Damien and John because they were building the product they wanted as passionate players themselves. Their early traction with MTG creators gave the app credibility and reach, connecting them to a loyal, highly engaged community that values authentic tools built by insiders.

Cars & Bids

Exited

The online auction marketplace to buy and sell cool enthusiast cars.

Co-founded with automotive YouTuber Doug DeMuro.

Why we Invested

Doug had a uniquely passionate and massive audience, so we believed Cars & Bids was a natural extension of his content. With the market for modern enthusiast cars being underserved by existing players, we worked with Doug to create a fresher, community-driven platform.

Blake and the Eido Studios team were instrumental in the launch of Cars & Bids. Eido was with us from day one, and we wouldn't have been successful at the incredibly difficult task of launching a business and scaling it without the support we received from the Eido team.
