We just made our first investment at XF 💪✨. It's earlier than we’d anticipated, but there’s a bunch of exited founders who didn’t want to wait a moment to take their next big swing - and have started working with us already.

In one month, a group of elite experienced founders will come together to build their next company with us. Deep scars and the ambition to take another huge swing. Below are anon profiles for a handful of the founders who will be joining XF in September. If you want to join.

These are pieces I repeatedly share with builders — grounded, practical, and relevant to founders trying to execute in this space.

There’s been a surge of content on AI-enabled services and rollups — some of it visionary, some more speculative. After two years of investing in this space and doing practical work with teams, I’ve pulled together a shortlist of resources that are actually helpful.

We’re gearing up for the wider cohort in September, bringing together founders who’ve built high quality companies before, and helping them build deep conviction in their next bet - in 6-9 weeks, not 6-9 months. We’ll help them pair up with a world-class cofounder along the way.

When I first invested in AI-enabled services two years ago, it was a niche thesis. Now, with several billion in capital committed, it’s time to hear more from founders and funds executing on it. So I’m hosting an exclusive founders-only event on 9th June with the west-coast fund.

I’m looking for 10 experienced engineers and researchers to join a group of 30+ proven founders I’m building with. Over the last month I’ve built deep conviction in our Experienced Founder thesis — by working with commercial and technical CEOs who want to leverage their scars.
A handful of companies built in the next 3 years will define the trajectory of our largest industries for the next 50.

Europe, for the first time, has a deep bench of proven founders. I think it is one of the important priorities of our time to ensure that this talent applies itself to building high quality companies. For the few people who can, it’s the most important and fulfilling work they’ll.
