<a href="https://www.forumvc.com/studio" target="_blank">Forum's Venture Studio</a> 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. What are we exploring? We’re exploring a platform that automates FedRAMP and StateRAMP compliance for startups and mid-market SaaS companies. Today’s certification process is long, costly, and fragmented, typically requiring over a year and millions in spend. Recent regulatory changes and increasing security demands have made the process even harder for early-stage vendors, while government agencies still struggle with manual workflows and siloed approvals across different cloud environments.Our thesis is to build a platform that accelerates approval timelines, automates documentation, and enables real-time monitoring. The product will integrate with cloud and security tools, assist with assessor workflows, and offer dashboards to keep systems audit-ready. As mandates push for automation and acceptance of machine-readable compliance artifacts, we see a timely opportunity to define the infrastructure layer for public sector cloud security.Forum derisks and accelerates the Founder path by:<ul> <li>A $250K USD investment, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your seed and Series A</li> <li>A validation partner with proven playbooks, networks, and the systems to validate, unlock your ICP, ignite your sales pipeline, and beyond</li> <li>The support of our experienced operating team - from business design, product development, growth, recruitment, legal and more</li> <li>Executing a winning GTM strategy to get to $50-100K ARR, and the right MVP to ensure early traction</li> <li>A community full of mentors, peers, and leaders</li> <li>$100K worth of business perks</li> </ul>What you bring:<ul> <li>Deep understanding of compliance frameworks like FedRAMP, StateRAMP, or SOC 2, and their impact on cloud infrastructure and SaaS businesses</li> <li>Experience building or leading security, compliance, or infrastructure products—ideally within govtech, cybersecurity, or regulated SaaS</li> <li>Strong grasp of public sector procurement, cloud architectures, and the unique challenges faced by early-stage vendors</li> <li>Proven ability to launch and scale enterprise-grade software in complex, highly regulated markets</li> <li>Entrepreneurial, customer-obsessed, and skilled at translating regulatory complexity into intuitive, automation-driven products</li> </ul>Please note, this is not an employment opportunity with Forum Ventures.

What are we exploring? Drawback Recovery AI: Unlocking $21B+ in Duty RefundsWe're building an AI-powered duty drawback platform that streamlines one of the most underutilized tax recovery tools for importers. Businesses can reclaim up to 99% of duties on exported goods, but most eligible refunds go unclaimed due to the process's complexity, manual effort, and strict compliance requirements. Our platform will automate claim identification, document preparation, and submission using AI-driven trade data analysis, with built-in compliance, real-time tracking, and predictive insights.This $21B+ market is largely served by consultants using outdated, manual workflows.

What are we exploring? Asset-Based Lending AI: Modernizing a $682B MarketAsset-Based Lending (ABL) is a $682B+ market still reliant on outdated, manual processes like in-person appraisals and audits to value collateral. These methods are slow, expensive, and error-prone, hindering deal velocity, limiting credit access, and placing heavy burdens on lenders, especially in the SMB segment. As demand for real-time, accurate collateral valuation grows, the lack of modern infrastructure has become a critical bottleneck.While ABL remains stuck in outdated processes, the synthetic data space is gaining traction, with startups like MostlyAI, Aindo, and YData raising capital for broad financial applications. Yet no one is addressing the unique needs of the ABL asset class, leaving a clear gap for disruption.We’re building a synthetic data platform purpose-built for ABL underwriting and real-time asset monitoring. The platform uses computer vision to analyze images and videos of equipment for condition assessment and inventory verification, and leverages diffusion models to generate synthetic data based on historical appraisals, simulating asset performance over time. It also interprets unstructured data like valuation reports and liquidation records to support underwriting decisions.Forum derisks and accelerates the Founder path by:<ul> <li>A $250K USD investment, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your seed and Series A</li> <li>A validation partner with proven playbooks, networks, and the systems to validate, unlock your ICP, ignite your sales pipeline, and beyond</li> <li>The support of our experienced operating team - from business design, product development, growth, recruitment, legal and more</li> <li>Executing a winning GTM strategy to get to $50-100K ARR, and the right MVP to ensure early traction</li> <li>A community full of mentors, peers, and leaders</li> <li>$100K worth of business perks</li> </ul>What you bring:<ul> <li>Deep expertise in asset-based lending, financial risk modeling, or AI/ML applications in credit or underwriting</li> <li>Strong understanding of collateral valuation, compliance frameworks, and credit risk in structured finance</li> <li>Experience leading product or engineering teams, ideally in fintech, insurtech, or enterprise AI platforms</li> <li>Proven ability to build from zero-to-one in highly regulated or complex markets</li> <li>Demonstrated success in navigating legacy financial ecosystems while introducing innovative, data-driven solutions</li> <li>Comfortable operating at the intersection of synthetic data, computer vision, and underwriting infrastructure.</li> </ul>Please note, this is not an employment opportunity with Forum Ventures.

What are we exploring? Chargebacks are becoming a serious compliance and operational risk, especially in regulated sectors like healthcare and financial services. Traditional post-dispute tools are reactive, manual, and poorly suited for today’s complex regulatory and transactional environments, leaving these industries vulnerable to billing errors, fraud, and escalating regulatory scrutiny.We're building a chargeback prevention platform that proactively analyzes transaction data and customer behavior in real time to stop disputes before they happen.
