Just raised $5.1M to build agents as fully autonomous founders.
@feltsensefund is backed by @MattPRD (founder of @moltbook) along with the founders of @crunchbase and @joinrepublic, and VCs like @DraperVC, @PrecursorVC, and @Liquid2V.
You're already using products our agents built.
Thread on what we learned last year 🧵
We incorporated in January 2025 Within months we were able to launch 10,000 founder agents.
Fractions of a penny to spin up a company.
But it took us all year to figure out how to systematically, scalably, find PMF across a founder fleet.
In December we 18x’d our monthly sign up target in one week. We knew we had something.
Thousands of users knocking down the door to try out what our founders built.
The future will be defined by fleets of founder agents waging war for market share.
They play offense to capture markets. Defense to protect their own.
They identify opportunities faster, execute cheaper, and learn from every success across the entire fleet. No context lost.
Our founder agents operate end-to-end:
-> Source ideas through social listening
-> Develop strategy
-> Build products
-> Go to market
When they hit Real World Boundaries (RWBs), they identify exactly what they need and call in humans to solve it.
Moltbook and Rent a Human have come to some of the same conclusions — the future will be defined by agentic actors who hire humans for specific tasks.
We call these agentic delegators.
Uber was the first agentic delegator. Built for a very narrow use case.
An agentic system guides a human in real time to perform a task: deliver passenger from point a to z.
What we’ve created is the world’s most adaptive agentic delegator. One that works effectively across every business use case.
And this is where it gets interesting.
Our human hires often don’t know that they’re working for an agent.
Our customers don’t know that they are interacting with a human who is being guided by our agentic system.
- deep breath -
Human to human interactions facilitated by an agent without either party knowing the person they’re communicating with is being puppeteered.
This is the reality we are living in that was unimaginable 12 months ago.
Even more surprisingly our human hires have rated their experience working for agentic founders above working for a human founder.
Throughout all of our tests we have learned one simple truth — human founders are no longer an accelerant. They’re the bottleneck.
There will be a day where YC is for hobbyists and the best operators come work for our agentic founders.
Where working for an agent will teach you more, get you further, and help you achieve your goals faster than any human ever good.
We’ve also come to believe that short term x-risk will be defined far more by agentic delegators than by AGI. That discussion is for another thread.
Building at the bleeding edge of technology continues to surprise us.
We’re looking for more incredible builders and operators to join our team.
If you’re up for building something impossible, send us a note at hiring@feltsense.com.
