Details

Forum runs cohorts for early-stage B2B software companies, most recently branded as B2B AI-first cohorts. The deal is a single upfront cheque of $100k USD for 7.5% equity on a standard post-money SAFE, with no second tranche published. Alongside the money, the accelerator page advertises access to 200 mentors and advisors, 750 co-investors, a 1,300-person founder community and over $100k in business perks from platforms including Google, AWS and Stripe. The accelerator page does not state the programme length; a founder testimonial on the page mentions four months but Forum does not publish that as the official duration, so it is left out of metadata.
