The AI2 Incubator partners with entrepreneurs like you that use revolutionary AI models to create products that people love. Typically these are brand new companies that we co-found together with you, but can also include our backing/support of an existing pre-seed company. In most cases, we invest about $600,000 in pre-seed capital over the course of about a year (in addition to ~$200,000 in cloud credits), and pour our hearts and souls into helping you with every aspect of getting a new business off the ground.
