One Valley Innovators & Laboratories
Built for better. Working forward, always.
At OVIL, we believe the world’s hardest problems deserve clearer minds and bolder architectures.
We operate at the intersection of technology, policy, and human futures—developing ventures, tools, and systems that are practical today and scalable tomorrow.
We’re not building answers in isolation. We’re convening those who know that progress doesn’t need to be loud to be real—and that “better” is a discipline, not a finish line.
You don’t need to be everywhere. You need to be aligned. Let’s start from there.
Our Strategic Pillars
Each exists to address the structural gaps most institutions can’t. Together, they form OVIL’s operational architecture.
Palisade Works
The contracting arm of OVIL—engineering low-barrier microservice pathways into the federal space with clarity, speed, and structural integrity.
SHSH | ALECC
Second Horizon Solutions Harbor (SHSH)
Operational container for ALECC—the automation framework redefining federal procurement lifecycle management through secure, scalable AI systems.
Teon
A spirits venture grounded in sacred ecology and cultural reciprocity—bottling communion, stewardship, and authentic terroir.
A visionary design studio exploring future societies, moral architectures, and spiritual emergence through systems, stories, and play.
Common Chaos Studios
Unbound Vermont (UV)
A cultural infrastructure project supporting regional celebration, seasonal programming, and public expression across the Green Mountains and beyond.

LABORATORY XIII
Laboratory XIII | The Silent Division
Few know what goes on beyond the doors of Laboratory XIII—only that every future OVIL builds begins there.
We build deliberately.
We move with discipline.
We scale only what serves.
