Forum's Venture Studio brings together ambitious people, brilliant ideas, and capital to build the best B2B SaaS businesses in the world, from 0 to 1. In addition to capital and an idea, we provide founders with access to investor networks, fundraising support, and the resources needed to build transformational companies. Our AI Studio has launched 17 companies since 2023, and we're launching 7 more in 2026. We're designed to help Founders move faster, develop better insights, and build companies that have a higher success rate than startups built in any other way.
What We're Looking At:
AI agents are doing real work inside real companies. But the CFO's financial model still assumes all work is done by people. Forum AI Studio is looking for a Founder who is exploring any of these themes:
AI labor cost attribution
AI workforce planning
AI ROI reporting layer
You've been a leader at a company that started deploying AI at scale. Maybe you built the spreadsheet that tries to attribute AI spend to real output, or the headcount model that no longer holds up now that agents are doing the work, or the board deck that couldn't answer a straight question about ROI. Whichever version of this you've lived, you understand the financial model well enough to know what product would actually fit the buyer. That's who we build with.
Forum derisks and accelerates the Founder path by:
A $250K USD investment, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your seed and Series A
A validation partner with proven playbooks, networks, and the systems to validate, unlock your ICP, ignite your sales pipeline, and beyond
The support of our experienced operating team - from business design, product development, growth, recruitment, legal and more
Executing a winning GTM strategy to get to $50-100K ARR, and the right MVP to ensure early traction
A community full of mentors, peers, and leaders
$100K worth of business perks
About you:
Early-stage operator experience with domain expertise in financial operations and enterprise finance
The ability to attract, hire and lead world-class teams
A demonstrated passion for technology’s ability to change the world
A desire to be a venture-backed founder
Canada or US-based, and the ability to collaborate in North American time zones.
