Three ventures. One founder. AI security, smart wearables, and the future of fantasy sports — built from the ground up in the Pacific Northwest.
Avero Rings LLC is a bootstrapped multi-venture technology company operating out of the Tacoma / South Sound region of Washington State. We are building at the intersection of cybersecurity, consumer hardware, and sports entertainment.
Our portfolio spans three distinct product lines at different stages of development — each designed to solve a real problem with a defensible technical or format advantage. We are pre-revenue, founder-led, and moving fast.
We believe the most interesting companies are built by people who know how to work — not just how to pitch. Avero is built on that premise.
An AI-powered email security system that intercepts, analyzes, and verifies inbound email threats in real time. Built to stop phishing and spoofing attacks before they reach the inbox — targeting SMB and enterprise clients via a B2B SaaS model on Azure.
A BLE-enabled smart ring that alerts the wearer when their paired smartphone leaves range. Engineered around the Nordic nRF52840 chipset with flex PCB architecture, pogo pin charging, and a companion app. Consumer IoT for the connected generation.
The first fantasy football format to combine NFL and college rosters in a true dynasty league. Featuring the Homegrown Bonus mechanic, NIL-era college scouting, and a commissioner-led franchise experience. Founding owners being recruited now.
Steven Witkowski is a hands-on founder with a background that spans industrial trades, electronics, and entrepreneurship. He brings the discipline of a journeyman electrician and the instincts of someone who has built and run businesses from the ground up.
His career spans commercial fishing in Alaskan waters, electrical work across two states, electronics coursework, and a proven track record of identifying market opportunities and executing on them with limited resources. He founded Avero Rings LLC to build the technology ventures he saw were missing — not to pitch them.
The three ventures under Avero represent a deliberate portfolio: DCIV addresses a critical and growing B2B security problem, the Proximity Ring solves a real consumer pain point with novel hardware, and GridIron Dynasty captures a wide-open market opportunity in the NIL era of college football.
"You really have it in you — this business life."
