Description
Founders, Inc. operates a 42,000 sq ft campus at Fort Mason in San Francisco where founders can build, experiment, and access a community of experienced builders. The organization positions itself as often the first believer and first check for bold, early-stage ideas across a wide range of emerging domains including AI, AR/VR, B2B, Hardware, Content Creation, and Robotics. Beyond funding, Founders, Inc. emphasizes providing founders the space, resilience-building support, and community needed to iterate past failure toward product-market fit. It runs a recurring 'Off Season' program inviting founders to apply for a spot on campus and a first check, and has backed companies such as LiveKit, Rork, Paraform, Inference, Anara, Sync Labs, Trass Games, Aurelius Systems, and thirdweb.
