About DRS

DRS is an AI-native consumer app studio that builds and operates high-quality products on a shared backend and live-ops foundation. Our stack covers marketing, data, content management, A/B testing, pricing, and user identity. Each new app builds on existing infrastructure, while successful features and learnings can be applied across the portfolio. As AI makes development easier, we focus on the harder challenge: acquiring, converting, and retaining users. We have launched three apps and reached approximately $500K ARR. My Clip, our music web app, reached $250K ARR in 29 days, versus 130 days for Glow, our first app. Our 10-person expert team spans product, engineering, design, growth, and creative, including former Alictus (game studio) executives, where SciPlay acquired at $125M, earlier startup founder with $40 MM ARR and 230-person team. We’re building a scalable consumer app studio where every launch benefits from the technology and operating knowledge developed before it.
