An experiential learning program of the BYU Marriott School of Business.
Mission
We develop AI builders of faith, skill, and integrity who amplify opportunity and increase abundance worldwide.
Vision
A world where expertise is abundant, and human flourishing is never limited by access, only by ambition.
We are judged by what we ship: whether it works, and whether someone would pay for it. We compete on output, not pedigree. Credentials, whitepapers, and good intentions don't count as evidence; working systems in production do. Every Foundry builder is expected to master the frontier and prove that mastery through shipped work.
We hold ourselves to a higher standard than any rule will ever require. The real test of character is what you build when no one is auditing you. Access to people's data, attention, and labor is a trust freely given, never a lever to pull. We build only what people would consent to if they fully understood it. Our faith and integrity are not a compliance layer; they are the reason we build at all.
We don't wait for permission to act on what we already know is right. Free, responsible people don't wait for institutional consensus. Urgency is a choice, the only thing that turns belief into shipped work instead of another meeting. It is how we stay at the frontier, and how we bring the frontier back to BYU.

Reference builds
Built by the people on the About page. Real products, shipped and running.
Open-source build spec for an AI-native feedback widget: one click captures a screenshot and the machine context around it, Claude Code fixes with that context loaded, and the fix commit closes the loop back to the reporter. Built into every app we ship.
An AI-native administration system for skilled nursing and acute care. It turns the notes staff already write in the EHR into plain-language updates for approved family members: changes of condition, appointments, events. HIPAA-compliant architecture throughout, with role-based access, encryption, and audit logging on every PHI access. Onboarding its first five facilities, each over 100 residents.
An AI-native French learning app for web and iPhone, built around the words you actually use and a measured climb to 80% of everyday French.
Tell us what you want built. We come back with a scope of work, a cost estimate, and a delivery timeline. All information is treated as confidential.
Net-new web and mobile applications.
AI wired into the systems you already run today.
We train your own team to build this way, with the same tools we use.
