About Us
Platform Venture Studio (platformstud.io) was created for founders by founders. We provide the infrastructure for founders from all backgrounds to build groundbreaking companies that tackle the world’s biggest problems.
Our tried and true methodology helps startups reach escape velocity faster, cheaper, and while having a lot more fun. Our studio team does real work, we don’t waste time, and we’ve seen the traps that most startups fall into so we can help you steer clear of the potholes along the way. Platform’s creators, serial entrepreneur Jeremy Burton and 2020 Midas List investor Tim Connors, have 60+ years of combined experience developing highly successful startups.
In addition to support from our studio team and other portfolio companies, we have an 80,000+ strong community of coaches, investors, future customers, and advisors for you to lean on.
We value results. We worship data. We don't chase fads. We build companies that change the world for the better.
About the Opportunity
We seek an entrepreneur who is passionate about transforming how companies hire talent. As the leader of this AI-driven initiative, you will be responsible for bringing to market a cutting-edge solution that optimizes the talent acquisition process. This product will leverage advanced AI technology, allowing businesses to focus on higher-level decision-making while improving overall efficiency in hiring.
This role offers the unique opportunity to spearhead the development of a tool that addresses one of the most significant inefficiencies in recruitment today. You'll be at the forefront of innovation, helping to shape the future of how companies build their teams.
Note: If you have already raised capital and found product-market fit, then you are likely too late for our Founder-in-Residence program. Alternatively, we do make select traditional pre-seed investments in highly thematic companies. If you are interested in pitching for direct investment, please use Platform's DeckSend tool to send your deck for consideration: https://decksend.net/submit/cohort-2025
Note: Please do not pitch us in this application. We don't want to hear why you think your idea is the greatest thing ever. Instead, we want to hear about why you want to partner with us to solve a problem and engage in a process to discover the right solution. If you don't feel like you have a bulletproof, perfect answer to some of these questions, that's normal. Do your best and show your work.
We most want to understand who you are: your story, your motivation for being a founder, why you care about the problem you're trying to solve, and how you think about and approach problem-solving. Take this opportunity to tell us who you are and let it serve as a reflective exercise for yourself as a founder.
