About the role

FutureSight is seeking a Co‑Founder & CEO to lead an AI‑native content intelligence and publishing venture. This is a co‑founder partnership with meaningful founder equity, not a salaried executive role.

Orbitwell is an AI‑first content workflow that turns a professional’s own judgment and stories into a consistent, firm‑approved public presence. The platform captures private input through conversation, audio, and dictation, drafts voice‑matched content grounded in that person’s real expertise, and routes every draft through configurable firm guardrails and human verification before it reaches a ready‑to‑publish queue. Rather than another point solution for capture, writing, or scheduling, Orbitwell is designed to be the system of record for expert‑driven publishing inside professional‑services firms.

The venture begins with an initial product, 30+ validation interviews, and a working prototype to accelerate iteration and go‑to‑market. We are now seeking a founder to lead the venture from here.

Market context: over 500,000 US professional‑services firms in wealth and legal alone (33,000 RIAs, 418,000–463,000 law firms), most under 10 people. Professional‑services AUM/revenue is growing and consolidating: RIA assets under management +22.3% YoY to $176.8T; RIA M&A hit a record 322 deals in 2025, up from 272; law firm employment +1.4% in 2025. The category proving willingness to pay for this workflow — personal/employee advocacy software — is a $0.5B–$2.2B market in 2026, growing at double‑digit CAGR through the early 2030s. Generative AI content creation, the underlying technology wave, is a $14.8B market in 2024 projected to reach $80.1B by 2030 (32.5% CAGR).

About FutureSight: FutureSight is a leading venture builder that co‑creates world‑class software companies with values‑driven entrepreneurs from inception to exit. The team includes founders, operators and designers with experience bringing software to market at scale, led by John Carbrey (4x entrepreneur, $100M ARR), Krista LaRiviere (3x exited, E&Y Top Women Entrepreneur), Alan Smith (Strategyzer co‑founder, $120M in products built), Prathna Ramesh (former MD of Maple Leaf Angels, $275M in follow‑on capital), and Johnny Tong (0‑to‑1 builder, acquired by SAP and Stripe).

The Partnership: You will co‑create with FutureSight’s cross‑functional team as your partner, operating as CEO while receiving venture‑building resources, investor access, and pre‑seed capital.

  • Clear-eyed understanding of the risks and demands of co‑founding a venture‑backed company

  • Pre‑seed capital committed by FutureSight for early hires and MVP development, with potential for follow‑on funding
  • Venture building resources, including embedded design, engineering, growth, and fundraising support from day one
