Cohort
A one-week, in-person working cohort for early-stage teams building serious companies in the real economy.
Cohort 1 is designed for founders who want time, focus, and proximity to other high-signal builders. It is not a traditional accelerator, fellowship, or demo-day factory. The week prioritizes execution, direct feedback, and practical conversations with operators and investors who have built and backed real-world systems. The cohort is designed to be small by default and valuable by necessity.
Our focus
If you are building consumer social products, influencer marketplaces, growth-only SaaS, or sales-driven businesses without a real technical or operational core, this cohort is likely not a fit.
Who the cohort is for
- Actively building real products or systems
- Technical or operator depth on the founding team
- Pre-seed through early seed
- Care about execution, durability, and long-term outcomes
- Can commit fully to an in-person week of focused work
We prioritize substance over polish and seriousness over hype.
