We build it,
ship it, run it
Fenrir is a product studio out of Tampa Bay. We build AI-native products, ship them, and operate them in production — software that stands on its own.
How We Think
What drives every decision the studio makes.
We Ship Products
A studio is measured by what it ships. Our work goes into live products people actually use, running in production every day.
Claude-Native Craft
We go deep on one platform — Anthropic's Claude — and architect products around it. That focus is the difference between a chatbot and software that genuinely works.
We Run What We Build
Our flagship is live and our own operations run on autonomous AI employees. If a pattern doesn't hold up in our production, it doesn't make it into a product.
Agents as Infrastructure
Autonomous agents aren't a gimmick to us — they're how the studio operates. That hands-on experience shapes every AI-native product we design.
Engineering Discipline
Structured, tested, and built to last — the same rigor that secured identity systems for millions of users, applied to AI software.
Christopher Olson
Founder & Principal Engineer
I started Fenrir to build AI-native products — software with AI at its core, not stapled on after the fact. The studio's flagship is FaciliTrades, a barter marketplace where AI does the matching and chaining that make moneyless trade actually work.
My background is in enterprise security — I managed identity and access systems for 2 million+ users at Fortune 500 companies. That taught me good technology only matters if it's safe and people can actually use it. I bring that same discipline to every build — structured, tested, and built to last.
I run the whole studio on the tools we build with — product development, operations, and a fleet of autonomous AI employees handling the back office. Everything the studio ships, we've already put to work ourselves.
Background
- Enterprise Security & IAM (2M+ identities)
- Cloud Architecture (GCP, AWS)
- AI-Native Product Engineering
- Team Leadership (40+ engineers)
Studio
Flagship: FaciliTrades
Built on AI, Every Day
Product development, operations, research, financial tracking, and this website — all built and run with Claude and a fleet of autonomous AI employees. The studio is its own proof of concept.

The best way to understand the studio is to use what it ships.
