AI Fund is a venture studio founded by Andrew Ng in 2017 that collaborates with entrepreneurs, venture funds, and corporate partners to co-found and build AI companies from idea to impact. Unlike traditional venture capital firms, AI Fund plays an active co-founder role, working intensively with entrepreneurs during their startup's most critical phase from 0 to 1. The studio provides hands-on support including technical expertise, product development, customer discovery, recruiting, and business strategy. AI Fund's mission is to move humanity forward by accelerating the adoption of AI across industries through building transformative companies. With over $370 million in capital, the studio combines deep AI expertise with operational support to rapidly de-risk ideas, launch ventures with momentum, and scale companies quickly. AI Fund's unique approach involves validating ideas through a Founder in Residence program, providing pre-seed funding up to $1 million, assembling core teams, and offering continued support through fundraising and scaling.
