About

I’m Leon Hayes, entrepreneur and investor, building and backing ventures that merge innovation, technology, and purpose. Through Haystack, my incubator and VC platform, I help founders turn bold ideas into sustainable businesses with a structured process, access to capital, and hands-on support. I’ve launched companies across consumer products, property technology, AI, and fintech, including Yeah Buddy, Abode AI, whisky.ai, and Eyesite. My focus is simple: create ventures that deliver impact, empower founders, and drive meaningful progress.

Why we built flowtogther...

Modern work is broken.

Not because people aren t talented.
Not because teams don t care.
But because the way we work has become fragmented.

Endless Slack threads.
Scattered docs.
Tasks living in five different tools.
Meetings about work instead of doing the work.

Somewhere along the way, productivity became performative. Busy replaced effective. And alignment... the single most important ingredient of high-performing teams, became rare.
