About the role
Forum's Venture Studio is a leading early-stage fund and program for B2B SaaS startups. Starting a company is demanding, complex, and psychologically challenging. As former founders and early-stage operators, we understand firsthand that Founders need support, honest feedback, and someone who truly cares in their corner.
Our mission is to make the journey easier and more successful for Founders, and we've achieved this by making over 350+ seed investments that have raised $600M+ in follow-on funding. Forum founders have gone on to raise from funds like Andreessen Horowitz, NEA, Uncork Capital, 8VC, Founders Fund, Menlo Ventures, Canaan, Bowery Capital, Susa Ventures, SV Angel, and more.
We’re looking for a Founder/CEO to invest in who will lead in building an AI-native law firm that delivers faster, more affordable legal services through AI-driven workflows.
What are we exploring? Legal services remain expensive and time-intensive, especially in research, intake, and document drafting. Large Language Models now enable automation of these tasks, eliminating reliance on the billable hour and manual processes. Traditional firms can’t adapt quickly — creating a gap for AI-native firms built for speed, cost-efficiency, and scalability. We see opportunities in areas like fixed-fee contract review, automated legal intake, and compliance, with a focus on serving solo practitioners, small firms, and underserved markets. The goal: create a new category of legal services that outperforms traditional models.
Forum Ventures is uniquely positioned to build in this space. With a portfolio of 400+ startups and a network of thousands of VCs, we have direct access to a large base of customers and partners who are already underserved by traditional firms and hungry for AI-driven solutions.
Forum directs and accelerates the Founder path by:
- A $250K USD investment with you as majority shareholder, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your seed and Series A
- Providing a vetted business idea and business model in a large market
- The support of our experienced operating team - from business design, product development, growth, recruitment, legal and more
- Executing a winning GTM strategy to get you 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
What you bring:
- Deep expertise in AI, NLP or voice technology, with a solid understanding of large language model challenges and opportunities
- Experience in product development or engineering leadership, ideally within voice, AI, or automation-driven environments
- A track record of driving innovation in high-stakes or regulated industries, such as healthcare or finance
- An entrepreneurial mindset with previous experience founding or scaling an early-stage venture
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to navigate complex technical and operational challenges.
- A collaborative approach, with the capability to build partnerships across technical and non-technical teams
- A desire to be a venture-backed founder
- Ability to collaborate in North American time zones
