Engineering.
Architects and senior engineers embedded with you from day one — fractional-CTO depth, without making the hire before you can afford it.
Supersolid Ignite — early-stage AI incubator
We turn great AI ideas into shipped companies. You bring the vision and the conviction — we bring the engineers, the codebases, the infrastructure, the investors, and the paperwork. All for 10% equity.
You've got the vision and the AI insight. We bring the other 90% of what it takes to turn it into a real, fundable company — and we only take 10% to do it.
Architects and senior engineers embedded with you from day one — fractional-CTO depth, without making the hire before you can afford it.
LLM integration, evals, retrieval, and the unglamorous parts that decide whether an AI product actually holds up once real users touch it.
Battle-tested, maintained codebases for iOS, Android, web, and desktop. You start at month three, not at git init.
CI/CD, infrastructure, and dev workflows wired up before your first commit. Ship continuously from the start instead of "someday."
Warm introductions into our investor pool when your metrics are ready — not another cold deck vanishing into an inbox.
Company formation, equity, contracts, and IP handled by people who've done it many times before — so it's clean when it counts.
You bring the idea. We bring conviction.
Tell us what you're building and why you're the one to build it. We look for an AI-native wedge, real conviction, and a founder we'd run through a wall for. No eighty-page business plan required.
We embed, scaffold, and build with you.
Senior engineers join your project. We stand the product up on codebases we already maintain, wire CI/CD and infrastructure from the first commit, and build alongside you until it's real and in users' hands.
Raise from a position of strength.
With a shipping product and early traction, we make warm introductions into our investor pool and get the company properly incorporated. You walk into the raise with leverage — and you own 90% of what you're raising on.
You have a sharp AI product idea and the drive to build a company — but you're missing the engineering half. That's exactly who we ignite.
ApplyCurated, build-validated dealflow — companies with real products and clean cap tables, not pitch decks and promises.
Join the poolAI companies and platforms after distribution, integrations, and a steady pipeline of teams building on top of you.

Hire us
Every company
starts as a spark
that needs
to catch fire.
The hardest part of an AI company was never the idea. It's everything after it — the architecture, the infrastructure, the hiring, the incorporation, the raise. The people with the best ideas are often the least equipped to ship them. That gap is the whole reason we exist.
We're not a fund that wires money and waits. We embed real engineers, hand you codebases we already maintain, and build right next to you until the product is live and the company is real.
And we take 10% — nothing else. No fees, no monthly retainer, no money up front. We only win when you win, which means we're betting on exactly what you're betting on: that this thing catches fire.
Tell us what you're building. If it's AI-native and you're the founder to build it, we'll bring the engineering, the infrastructure, the investors, and the paperwork. You keep 90% and the company.
