Every industry. Same playbook.
The hard parts of starting a company don't change between a bank and a warehouse. So we solve them once, and every company we build gets the answer.

FAQ
What founders ask first.
Between 20 and 30 percent at launch, depending on how much of the team comes from our bench. You get the terms in writing before week one, and they don't change later.
Yes, and most founders do. If you don't have one yet, we share the problems our design partners keep asking us to solve.
No. About half our founders start solo. We introduce you to people from our bench during the first two weeks, and you choose who joins.
Yes. The six are where we have the most buyers lined up, not a hard limit. If the problem is big and you know it well, we want to hear it.
No. Teams work remote-first. We fly everyone in for the first week and for launch week.
