Forum's Venture Studio brings together ambitious people, brilliant ideas, and capital to build the best B2B SaaS businesses in the world, from 0 to 1. In addition to capital and an idea, we provide founders with access to investor networks, fundraising support, and the resources needed to build transformational companies. Our model is designed to help you move faster, develop better insights, and build companies that have a higher success rate than startups built in any other way. 

We are seeking a Founder/CEO to launch and run one of our next companies focused on revolutionizing the detection of frivolous lawsuits in large enterprises. Large companies face thousands or even tens of thousands of lawsuits annually, putting immense pressure on in-house legal teams to swiftly evaluate the merit of each claim. A significant portion of these lawsuits are frivolous in nature, filed with the intent to get a quick payday or to harass, annoy, or intimidate, rather than to achieve a legitimate legal outcome. These lawsuits typically lack a sound basis in law or fact.

We see a significant opportunity to help in-house legal teams by identifying frivolous lawsuits. While many existing solutions focus on document review and legal research, our approach proactively targets the early detection of meritless claims, aiming to address potential issues before they escalate.

Forum derisks 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:

• An earned point of view on the problems corporations face with frivolous lawsuits.

• Prior founding or early-stage experience.

• Experience 

• A demonstrated commitment to technology’s ability to change the world

• A desire to be a venture-backed founder

• Ability to collaborate in North American time zones

Please note, this is not an employment opportunity with Forum Ventures.
