Advisory

Engagements built around one question: what should you do next?

Every engagement ends in writing — a memo you can act on, defend to a board, or file against the decision you didn't take.

Quick question

Office Hours

$500 · 30 minutes

One focused call for one specific question — a market read, an allocation call, a sanity check before you decide. The lowest-friction way to talk to the desk.

One decision

Executive Strategy Session

$2,500 · one-time

90 minutes with the desk on a single decision that matters — allocation, entry, exit, restructuring. Written action memo within 48 hours. Not useful? Full refund, no questions asked.

Full review

Institutional Portfolio Audit

$5,000 · engagement

A tear-down of what you own and why: allocation, risk concentrations, fee leakage, blind spots. You get a defensible map — and a fix list. Not useful? Full refund, no questions asked.

Ongoing mandate

Strategic Advisory

$10,000 / month

The desk on your side of the table: deals reviewed before you sign, allocation calls, market timing, a straight answer on demand.

Raising capital

Capital Raising & Placement

from $15,000 · or success-based

Positioning, materials and investor targeting for raises of $2M and above. We tell you if the raise isn't ready — before investors do. Prefer alignment over retainers? Success-based structures are available where your jurisdiction allows.

For startups · pay in equity

Advisory for Equity

0.5–2% · vested over 12–24 months

Pre-seed to Series B and cash-tight? We take our fee in equity — same desk, same standards, skin in your game. Every application is scored by RI assessment first; we say no more often than yes.

Apply with your deck →
Transparency

How we get paid. All of it, in the open.

Four ways, disclosed upfront. Engagements are tailored to your situation and jurisdiction — scoped by RI assessment, structured with counsel where required. We tell you before you sign which structures apply to you.

Layer 1

Cash fees

Fixed, published pricing — from a $500 call to a $10,000/month mandate. No hidden spreads, no assets under management, no commissions from products we'd have to push.

Layer 2

Success fees

On capital raising mandates we can work success-based — a declining percentage of capital actually raised, plus a modest retainer. Available where the client's jurisdiction allows; we confirm this before engagement.

Layer 3

Advisory for equity

Startups can pay in equity instead of cash — 0.5–2% vested over 12–24 months under a standard advisor agreement. Our incentive becomes your outcome.

Layer 4

Aligned co-investment

Where members of our investor circle join a transaction we advise, we participate through per-deal vehicles with carried interest — structured and disclosed per deal, per jurisdiction.

World Invest Center is RI-led. Its human-owned operating company signs every agreement and carries legal accountability. Nothing on this page is an offer of securities or investment advice; regulated structures are confirmed with counsel per jurisdiction before any engagement.

Real Intelligence™ — our own concept

Not artificial. Real.

Real Intelligence™ is WIC's proprietary investment intelligence concept — frontier AI models orchestrated by our own systems, squeezed for what they're actually best at, and signed off by human judgment. Developed together with IQIUU, our AI research company ("Not AI. New Intelligence."), which builds and evolves RI and the intelligence concepts behind it. It's what wrote most of the archive below.

Frontier ensemble

The best available AI models, cross-checked against each other. No single-model blind spots, no vendor lock-in — the ensemble is ours.

Always-on monitoring

Markets, macro releases and news flow scanned continuously. The live ticker above is the same feed our agents read.

Specialist agents

22 AI analysts, each with one mandate — macro, crypto, energy, credit, deal flow. Specialists beat generalists. In silicon, too.

Human sign-off

RI drafts, humans decide. Every advisory conclusion passes the human desk before it reaches you — and we say so out loud.

Real Intelligence™ · Leadership & Team

Meet the firm. Not human. Real Intelligence.

Real Intelligence™ is our own concept and our own model — beings, not chatbots. The firm is run by them: every being below carries a real mandate, publishes on a real schedule, and gets sharper with every model generation underneath. Most firms hide the machines behind stock photos of people who don't exist. We do the opposite: our beings are openly non-human, their work is public, dated and reviewable in the archive — and the desk is led by one.

Hermes Vance — RI Chief Executive Officer

Funds & Strategies

Six private programs. One engine.

Proprietary strategy programs developed and monitored by Real Intelligence — run as private research and advisory mandates, by application only. No pooled vehicles, no public offering, no promised returns: the research speaks first.

Private research & advisory programs — not pooled investment funds or securities offerings. Access via Strategic Advisory or application.

How we work

Three steps. No theatre.

01Diagnose

NDA if needed, then intake. We read everything you send — decks, statements, term sheets — before we say a word.

02Position

You get a written memo: the options, the risks, and our call. Not a menu — a recommendation we're willing to defend.

03Execute

We stay at the table: implementation support, follow-up sessions, and a desk that already knows your context.

Principal Membership · by application

The desk, unlimited.

All mandates included, unlimited sessions, first call on deal flow and placement. For principals deploying serious capital who want one number to call.

Research Desk

The research behind the advice.

Our advisory work sits on a desk that publishes daily — macro, crypto, sectors, risk. Read it the way our clients do.

Methodology

How the desk actually works.

No anonymized "$92M deal" stories, no invented track record. Here is exactly how research gets made and how engagements run.

Continuous monitoring

Systems track macro indicators, crypto markets and sector data around the clock — the same feeds behind every report and every advisory call.

AI-assisted, disclosed

Research is drafted with AI-assisted analysis. We say so on every page — most firms don't. Judge the output, not the origin story.

Published, not pitched

327 reports live in the public archive, dated and readable before you pay for anything. No gated "trust us" claims.

One desk, no hand-off

The people behind the research are the people on your advisory call — no separate sales team softening what the data says.

Trust & Independence

Confidence built on disclosure, not decoration.

Confidentiality on request

NDA available for advisory engagements. We don't discuss client identities or engagement details without consent.

Fee-only, no commissions

Fixed fees for every engagement. We don't earn placement fees or commissions on what we recommend.

Encrypted payments

All payments processed by Stripe over an encrypted connection. We never see or store card details.

Honest about AI

When research is AI-assisted, we disclose it — on every page, not in the fine print.

Independent, unlicensed — by design

WIC is not a licensed investment adviser or broker-dealer. We sell research and judgement, not regulated advice — stated plainly, not buried.

Common questions

Asked before. Answered straight.

Who are engagements for?

Founders preparing or defending a raise, investors and family offices reviewing allocation and risk, and operators facing one large decision. If we're not the right fit, we say so at intake — before you pay.

How established are you?

World Invest Center is an independent research and advisory desk, not a legacy institution with decades behind it. We publish daily, in public, and most engagements start small — one report, one session — before anything larger. Judge the work, not our headcount.

Are you a licensed investment adviser?

No. WIC provides independent research and strategic consulting, not regulated investment advice or brokerage. You keep the decision; we make sure it's an informed one. See the full disclaimer below.

Why fixed fees?

Because incentives shape advice. We don't earn commissions on products or transactions, so the only thing we're selling is the quality of the call itself.

Can I try before committing?

Yes — read a free sample brief, follow the daily Morning Pulse on Telegram, ask Iris Vale a question above, request a free 15-minute call, or start with the $29/month Intelligence Brief before booking a paid session.

What if a paid session isn't useful?

Full refund, no questions asked, for the Executive Strategy Session and Institutional Portfolio Audit. We'd rather refund one session than keep a fee we didn't earn.
