About
I'm Bryan Beshore, Co-founder, CTO & CPO of Topkey, where we're building financial infrastructure for property managers.
Previously, I founded Keychain Logistics (YC S12), a marketplace connecting shippers with truck drivers.
I also bootstrapped Instant Ammo to hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue. I built it to learn Python, scripting, and Shopify's API while leveraging my shipping expertise from Keychain. It was meant to be a learning project, but it made real money. When other priorities emerged, I shut it down rather than run something I wasn't fully committed to.
I've been building software and startups for over 15 years. I write about engineering, startups, and the intersection of technology and business.
Investing
I'm a Venture Partner at Pioneer Fund and have personally invested in 10+ startups as an angel investor.
