The Venture Creation Chasm
95% of would-be founders never launch. Not because their ideas lack merit, but because they face insurmountable barriers: time, capital, expertise, and network. Traditional paths demand you expose your strategy to gatekeepers who may reject, copy, or delay you.
The Inversion
The Origin inverts this model. Instead of pitching to humans who judge, you build with AI agents who execute. The application process is the company-building process. By week 4, you haven't just been "accepted" — you've already validated your idea, built your plan, and started your MVP.
Your Six AI Co-Founders
Specialized agents working 24/7 on your venture. Each produces verifiable outputs without accessing others' data.
Sophia

Marcus
Business Agent
Develops financial models collaboratively. Conducts competitive landscape mapping and designs go-to-market strategies.
Output: Business plan viability scores
Ada
Technical Agent
Recommends technology stacks, generates production-ready code, coordinates development iterations and manages testing.
Output: MVP deployment attestations
Justine
Legal Agent
Selects optimal jurisdictions, generates incorporation documents, deploys smart contract cap tables on-chain.
Output: DIDs for companies
Tycho
Talent Agent
Sources co-founders globally, matches candidate skills, enables selective disclosure and manages equity negotiations.
Output: Team assembly with vesting
Aurelia
Capital Agent
Executes investment auctions with competing AI investor-agents. Enables transparent, on-chain bidding and terms.
Output: Funded treasury with automated equity

Prove and Win Paradigm
Zero-knowledge cryptography lets you prove capability without revealing strategy.
Provable (Public)
- ✓ "Completed 47 hours of ideation"
- ✓ "Business model scores 82/100"
- ✓ "Built MVP with 50 beta users"
- ✓ "Post Web Alignment is 84/100"
Protected (Private)
- → Actual conversations with agents
- → Specific business model details
- → Customer identities
- → Technical approaches
ZK-STARK Implementation: All proofs are timestamped and stored on-chain. Only you hold the decryption keys. Selective disclosure lets you show different stakeholders different data — co-founders see team plans, investors see traction, public sees only attestations.
The Three-Score System
Real-time evaluation across three dimensions. AI agents provide specific improvement suggestions.
Founder Score
Creativity, strategic thinking, execution clarity, coachability
"Execution plan lacks milestones (+8 points)"
Post Web Alignment
Protocol vs platform, distributed value, agent-native design
Minimum threshold: 65/100
Sovereign Economy
Human sovereignty, fair distribution, community ownership
Minimum threshold: 70/100
Scores shown are illustrative. Actual thresholds may vary.
The Deal
Equity stake
Upfront cost
vs 12-18 months
Higher equity than YC (7%), but you get an AI co-founder team worth $2M+ if hired separately, legal incorporation ($10-20K saved), smart contract cap tables ($5-10K saved), full 7 Nexi infrastructure access, privacy-preserving evaluation, portable reputation credentials, and governance rights in THE FORGE DAO.
Infrastructure Extraction
The Origin isn't just building companies — it's harvesting infrastructure. Every component battle-tested by real ventures becomes a public building block for the 7 Nexi.
Automated incorporation workflows, multi-jurisdiction templates
Prove and Win framework, ZK proof generation
Three-Score evaluation, AI-assisted due diligence
Agentic investment auctions, smart contract fundraising
