The wedge
Administrator co-source
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.
GOR6
Counsel is live. The waitlist is 2,657. The public sale is not.
The window is a few days. After that Gorse Works archives. Diligence does not reopen as a live conversation.
Gorse Works — A system of record for private-credit funds and desks: tapes, RFQs, or covenants that update when a borrower files. The buyers already have a book. This is plumbing, not a venue that matches strangers.
Live campaign. 2,657 on the product waitlist — that is demand, not an allocation.
A year from now this will be an obvious company or a missed one. The window decides which.
Diligence, not a prospectus. RCA Pad does not allocate, take orders, or close funding. If this company raises, it raises with its own counsel.

The wedge
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.
Why the desk took it
They asked us to kill ‘marketplace’ in every sentence. We did.
Traction
Founded 2023, headquartered in Dubai. 2 named pilots on file (identities redacted in public). 2,657 on the waitlist, gated — product demand, not a book built. 22 nodes or connected surfaces reported. Desk diligence score 85/100. A qualified custodian reconciling against this book. A dual-control drill exists on paper. We have not watched it live yet — that is the next ask.
Next 12 months
eFront and Allvue are funds’ books. This is the tape between funds. Seat plus event. If they ever attach a token as the unit of account, the file stops.
The brief
Dubai is not a backdrop. It is the jurisdiction where a named customer can be sued, called, and asked a question on a recorded line. Gorse Works chose it for that reason. Counterparties who still think this is a ‘global’ story are already late.
If you leave this page without opening the claims table, you have read marketing. The scarce version of Gorse Works is the version that survives counsel. It is on a clock.
A sentence went public and came down in under an hour. Claire Ng treated the kill as an operating skill, not a PR event. Files that cannot do this do not stay listed.
From the pilot
Fixed fee. Deposit to start. 0% of proceeds. Token-only pay is declined. Percentage of raise is declined.
From the screen
This communication is not an offer. Participation mechanics do not exist on this pad. If a later reader treats the public stack as the offer, the stack was already wrong.
From counsel
A dual-control drill exists on paper. Production evidence is the next artefact, not a tweet.
The window
If the window closes you still have the pack — as history. Not as a live conversation.
The comment period is not a path. This company is priced as if that is already true.
We do not allocate. We do not take a cut. We will not hold the window open for you.
Window
Closed
Closed. History only — not a place to buy.
I will take thirty minutes and decide budget. If that person is not me, we should not be listed.

Gorse Works
Open-source looks free until the auditor asks who attests. Gorse Works has an answer.

The bet
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.
Allocators want daily marks and covenant visibility. Banks want to originate without building a chain team. The first honest tape that does not pretend to be an exchange will be paid for as software.
Private credit AUM is measured in trillions. The software take-rate is small. The switching cost, once a tape is the record, is not.
Versus the field
L2 wrappers are cheaper. They are also a different perimeter — and declined here. Gorse Works is priced as software against an invoice that already exists.
Named: Dubai. Off-limits: Public residual claims. A US person hearing an offering communication is a US problem even if the company sits in Dubai. Blocking an IP and taking a US Telegram admin is not a block.
How it works
In the same conversation as
If they raise
Not a token float. A budget against work. RCA Pad still takes 0% of proceeds.
Counsel & perimeter
31%
Adapter work against the incumbent register, admin, or custodian.
Claims & campaign ops
18%
Keeping the public story from running ahead of the claims register.
Certifications & adapters
16%
The remaining certifications and the second named market.
Second market
35%
Dual-control drills, key ceremonies, and the person who owns them.
Operating week

Next twelve months
Ten live facilities or this is still a lab.
A dual-control drill exists on paper. We have not watched it live yet — that is the next ask.
If they raise, it is to hire the remaining certifications and the second market — not to float a coin.

Readiness
Six things a serious buyer asks. 100 is “ready to take to counsel and a customer.”
Risks
The one that actually kills it
The moment Gorse Works asks this pad to allocate, sell, or complete funding, the listing ends. That is not a moral project. It is how a services firm stays a services firm.
The moment this looks like a public book, it is a venue. This pad will not list that.
Who owns the tape when a fund leaves? If that is unsigned, the enterprise value is a conversation.
A default cluster will test whether the product is a record or a reputation.
Retail is prohibited. Any ‘access token’ story is a different company.
If a fund leaves and the tape stays, who owns the history? Unsigned, the enterprise value is a conversation.
A later round that wants a public token puts Gorse Works in a different perimeter. The file treats that as a hard stop.

Structure
If this company raises, it raises with its own counsel and providers. The waitlist is a product list. It is not a round, a book, or an allocation on RCA Pad. We do not take a cut.
Where they can operate
Named markets are where a sentence is allowed. Restricted is where it is not. This is not a worldwide offering.
Team
Stack
Who can decide
The technical founder is on the record as engineering. Contractors in undisclosed jurisdictions are written down as a fact, not hidden. Facts can be managed. Hiding them is how companies die in diligence.
If the first customer renews, the adapter work pays for itself. If they do not, Gorse Works is a services firm with a slide. The twelve-month test is renewal, not waitlist.

If this company raises, it raises with its own counsel and providers. The waitlist is a product list. It is not a round, a book, or an allocation on RCA Pad. We do not take a cut. Founders who want a pack like this one apply. Readers who want the company talk to the company — not to this pad.
