RESOURCES
Tools for thinking like a founder and a quant.
A short, growing list. We'll add to this as the fellowship grows: application tips, mentor office hours, and reading we think is worth your time.
READING
Thinking in Bets
Annie Duke on decision-making under uncertainty. It's the mental model behind how we evaluate founders, and how we think you should evaluate your own startup bets.
APPLICATION
Recording your pitch video
Your 1–3 minute video matters more than polish. Speak plainly about your background, your motivation, and, if you have one, your idea. We're evaluating you, not your production values.
FRAMEWORK
Modeling expected value
Before you build, sketch the probability distribution of outcomes for your idea: best case, base case, worst case, and weigh that against the cost and time of building it. It's the same test we apply to every application.
