/kɔːr/ · verb · to filter · to distill signal from noise

Built from the prioritisation systems used while scaling DTC across the Resident Portfolio of Brands from $0 to $1bn — culminating in a $1bn exit.

Private infrastructure for serious operators.

The Problem

Most brands add
experimentation.
Serious brands add structure.

At scale, growth is rarely constrained by ideas.
It is constrained by sequencing.

Revenue doesn't disappear.
It becomes obscured.

At nine figures, the hardest constraint wasn't growth.
It was deciding what not to work on.

Coar formalises that decision layer.
AI is the infrastructure.
Clarity is the product.

The Coar Engine™

intelligence layer.

Signal 40+ revenue variables captured weekly — PDP performance, offer architecture, checkout data, paid media efficiency, lifecycle engagement, and on-site behavioural signal.

Each week, the Engine evaluates 40+ revenue variables across PDP clarity, offer architecture, checkout friction and lifecycle signal.

It identifies the highest-confidence revenue leakage.
It ranks the three actions that matter.

Everything else is removed.

Most brands add more experimentation.
Coar removes it.
Sample Output

Built From Scale

Built from real scale.

Steven Ryan led DTC across the Resident Portfolio of Brands from launch to over $1bn in revenue, culminating in a $1bn exit.

At scale, the constraint was not creativity.
It was prioritisation discipline.

Coar formalises that internal system.
This is not a growth experiment.
It is decision infrastructure.

"Most brands don't need more ideas.
They need to know which ones will actually move revenue."

Why Now

AI will not replace operators.
It will amplify those with structure.

The next competitive edge in DTC will not be creative volume.
It will be prioritisation speed.

Most brands will add more tools.
The serious ones will add a decision layer.

That gap is widening.

Who This Is For

Coar is built for £5m–£50m Shopify operators — founder-led or PE-backed — who understand that the next advantage is not more data.

It is better decisions.

  • £5m–£50m Shopify brands
  • Founder-led or PE-backed teams
  • High paid traffic dependency
  • Operators who value signal over noise
  • Brands ready to act on weekly priorities
Not for
  • Brands seeking experimentation volume
  • Agencies or media buyers
  • Early-stage brands under £5m
  • Those looking for a dashboard

If you are looking for experimentation volume,
Coar is not for you.
