Unlocking executive impact through automated systems.
Automating the noise so you can focus on the signal.
What we do
Audit
We map where an executive's time and attention actually go — surfacing the repetitive work quietly draining both.
Automate
We design and build the systems that take that work off your plate — quietly, reliably, in the background.
Amplify
What's left is signal: the decisions, relationships, and thinking only you can do.
Founders
Your Fifth Quarter was founded by Barnabas McManners-Dixon and Leigh Swift, two experienced software engineers with a combined 37 years of industry experience and a background in shipping software to hundreds of millions of users.
As Epic Games (creator of Fortnite) alumni who spent a decade and a half working together, they forged their careers in the uniquely high-pressure, results-driven environment of the games industry. Thriving in this highly agile space, they built reliable, performant systems to solve novel problems, including managing PC game store downloads so massive they required safeguards to prevent continental internet disruption.
Today, they are focused on the future, enthusiastic about AI's potential to empower users while remaining pragmatic about the risks of deploying it without care.
