Nobody Studios is an AI-native, high-velocity venture studio with an ambitious mission to create 100 compelling companies within five years. Founded in 2020 by serial entrepreneur Mark McNally, the studio operates on a unique 'crowd-infused' model that engages investors, founders, and contributors at every stage of company creation—from ideation to validation, iteration, and scaling. The studio differentiates itself through its exit-first thinking, where every startup is engineered with acquirers in mind from day one, enabling investors to access liquidity sooner and more predictably than traditional venture models. Nobody Studios focuses on rapid, frugal company building by investing approximately $250,000 over 12 months to validate each product vision before seeking external funding. The studio maintains 80%+ ownership in its portfolio companies even after bringing in founders, allowing for greater control and flexibility to pause, merge, split, or pivot companies as needed. Their AI-driven approach powers every stage of the company-building process, from market validation to business design to go-to-market strategy, creating a repeatable system for launching scalable companies. The studio prioritizes solving real business problems by partnering with customers who have already paid to address high-value challenges, providing validated opportunities with proven demand. With a globally distributed team spanning multiple continents and a commitment to transparency, inclusivity, and people-first culture, Nobody Studios aims to democratize entrepreneurship and venture investing, making wealth creation accessible to all through low barriers to entry and equitable returns.
