AI Founder, Health Insurance

Forum's Venture Studio brings together ambitious people, brilliant ideas, and capital to build the best B2B SaaS businesses in the world, from 0 to 1. In addition to capital and an idea, we provide founders with access to investor networks, fundraising support, and the resources needed to build transformational companies. Our AI Studio has launched 19 companies since 2023, and we're launching 4 more in 2026. We're designed to help Founders move faster, develop better insights, and build companies that have a higher success rate than startups built in any other way.

The health insurance brokerage market is a $400B+ revenue line built on a structure that hasn't changed in 40 years. Brokers earn 4-8% of premium for placing a plan and managing a renewal. When premiums go up, they earn more. Efficiency cuts their own commission. The people closest to the problem are paid to leave it alone - exactly the kind of market where AI-native builders win.

Group captives, AI-powered TPA tooling, and CMS price transparency rules are pulling self-funded structures down into the 25-200 employee cohort for the first time - roughly 6 million US businesses with no incumbent built to serve them. We're exploring two distinct entry points into this market, and we're looking for the founder with the conviction and credibility to own one of them.

Forum derisks and accelerates the Founder path by:
