Out front, finding the way.

Point Rider is a small holding company in Washington State. We only build or invest when an idea makes sense from first principles.

When we commit, we hold the work to a high bar and don't compromise on it. Everything we build or back should perform well, last for years, be simple to work with and put people first. We would rather take longer than put our name on something we wouldn't trust ourselves.

Trust is earned slowly, so we act with integrity: we tell the truth, keep our word and take responsibility for our work.

Our first company

RYLAY app icon

RYLAY

Say it like relay.

Group voice, calling and messaging for iPhone that works phone to phone, with no cell signal needed.

People come first.

Whether it's an app, a property or an investment, we keep it simple and protect the people who rely on it.

Keep it simple.We choose the simple path over the clever one and cut anything that doesn't earn its place. Fewer moving parts means less can go wrong.
Privacy by default.We ask only for the information we truly need, and handle what people share with us carefully.
Plan ahead.Customers, residents and partners depend on what we build, so we think through what could go wrong before it does.

Why "Point Rider."

On a cattle drive, the point rider was the best and most experienced rider of them all, out in front of the herd.

They picked the route, steered everyone around obstacles and danger, and led the herd safely to its destination. That's the standard we're working toward.

Say hello.

We're just getting started. Whether you want to follow along, try RYLAY or work with us, we'd love to hear from you.
