PHAOS is an AI-native reputation and narrative advisory. We read the signals — across media, markets, and search — while they are still weak enough to shape. Build, protect, and audit the narratives that define you.
↳ In practice: a 48-hour intelligence dossier on any company, founder, or counterparty — from €5,000.
Engagements diverge on day one. Self-select the path that matches your mandate.
Reputational due diligence, predictive risk on targets and counterparties, and narrative protection through close. Decision-grade intelligence delivered before the LOI expires.
Real-time crisis architecture, bilingual narrative audit (ES/EN), and stakeholder protection for listed and family-owned corporations. We arrive at the signal, not the headline.
Every reputational event passes through five thresholds. We work upstream — at the signal — before perception calcifies into crisis.
Most clients find us at threshold 03. By then, the cost of inaction is ten times what it would have been at threshold 01. Where are you right now?
↳ We operate between 01 and 02. By 04, it is no longer narrative intelligence — it is damage control.
Most clients arrive with a single question and a deadline. The audit answers it in 48 hours. But reputation is never static. The risks we surface need watching. The narrative we map is one you will want to shape. So an engagement that begins as a 48-hour dossier becomes, for most, a relationship across three movements.
↳ Each movement earns the next. We never sell the ladder. We surface the reason for it.
Three movements, one ascent. Most engagements begin with a single audit and deepen into a standing mandate. Scoped per mandate, priced on engagement.
One signal can change an eight-figure offer.
Full intelligence report on any entity, founder, or counterparty — reputational footprint, adverse media, network exposure, and forward-looking narrative risk. Built for investment committees and M&A close.
The crisis that would have cost you €2M in management time never happened. Because we read the signal at week one.
Always-on AI monitoring of narrative, search, and stakeholder networks. Threats triaged at signal level and resolved before they cluster. Asynchronous by design — no standing calls, no theatre.
Six months from now, when capital, press, and policy circles search your name, they find the narrative you chose — engineered, measured, defended. Most often deployed in the first 100 days after an acquisition, a raise, or a leadership change, when the story is still yours to write.
Modular capabilities that extend the core protocols. Engaged à la carte or layered into a mandate.
↳ On the horizon: Policy Intelligence and a Continuous Monitoring Dashboard — released once current protocols consolidate. PHAOS does not, and will not, operate as a lobbyist.
These are targets we contract against per mandate — not historical claims. The number goes in the engagement letter; the engagement letter holds us to it. Every mandate is measured against these targets and reported at delivery.
↳ Targets, not testimonials. Each is written into the engagement letter and reported on at delivery.
We operate from Lisbon. Two beachheads: Iberian corporates in transition, and Private Equity / M&A across the EU and US. We do not chase every sector — we go deep in the ones that pay for clarity.
One redacted mandate and one representative scenario. References are released — under NDA — only after a Secure Briefing.
A target's founder presents clean public records. Pre-LOI, the committee needs certainty within five business days.
A mandate of this type surfaces an adverse-media cluster forming across jurisdictions and undisclosed prior litigation. Offers get repriced by eight figures; funds close on revised terms.
A regional outage seeded a coordinated narrative escalating toward national press inside 36 hours. Board needed containment in Spanish and English, simultaneously.
Activated within 24h. Pre-tested bilingual messaging deployed across stakeholders, regulators, and media. The story did not reach the front page; share price held.
↳ All identifying details altered. Sector and geography preserved.
Before a narrative
becomes a crisis,
it is always a signal.
We read it first.
48 hours. From €5,000. One signal can change an eight-figure offer. Built for investors, M&A advisors, and boards who need to know what they are buying.
One line reaches the founder directly. No forms, no gatekeepers. Organisation, jurisdiction, and two or three lines of context are enough.
We cap intake at four engagements per quarter, to protect depth and discretion.
Trained in international relations and strategic communication, with a postgraduate in political advisory — the discipline where narratives are contested in real time and reputation is won or lost on the message. He has founded and run companies across hospitality and digital products, and spent years building personal brands and market narratives. PHAOS applies that craft through AI: reading the weak signals that move perception before they calcify into crisis. Based in Lisbon.
