Our Process
Ideate
001 — Idea Match
Together with high-potential entrepreneurs, we Ideate and identify a discrete, testable idea in the economic opportunity space that addresses a $1B+ market and is aligned with the founder’s skills and experience.
002 — Validate
Once we have identified an idea, we de-risk customer demand for the product and service through customer development, interviews, and prototypes.
003 — Launch
We provide entrepreneurs with a stipend to run an MVP to de-risk the business, acquire early customers, and secure exteneral resources. The entrepreneur stipend unlocks founding talent that couldn’t otherwise afford 9 months without a paycheck.
004 — Grow
We provide ongoing founder coaching, operational playbooks, recruiting and fundraising support to help founders grow their own skills as they grow their companies.
What To Expect
For 3-9 months, you’ll be working directly with our general partners and team to co-found a company.

If we mutually find an idea we’re all excited about, we will invest up to $500k when company milestones are met.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the initial commitment?
The first month is part-time. You do not need to quit your job. After that, this is a full-time endeavor.
What are your deal terms?
In addition to working together to create the company, we invest $250k to $500k as the first money into the company. Founders retain a competitive amount of company equity.
Do I need to move?
No. You can be based wherever you feel is the best location for you to build a successful venture. But, we do expect a team IRL experience once during ideation and once a month during validation.
What resources are available during the ideation phase?
Full-time access to the core studio team, our startup building playbook, our network of coaches, our talent network of engineers, marketers, designers, etc., and our hands-on support/ownership of legal, HR, admin, fundraising, etc.
