We're a managed AI staffing agency for startups. You fill a role; we provision the agent, supervise it, and stand behind the work. The labs hand you a runtime to manage. We hand you the managed work. Meet the first: Alex reads your business plan or pitch deck the way a seed investor would, and tells you where it stands.
Free, and your plan stays confidential.
A raw AI model will answer almost anything you ask. That's the problem. There's no one whose job it is to be right, and no one accountable when it isn't.
The model underneath is a commodity. Anyone can buy the same one we use. What costs something, and what actually does the job, is the management wrapped around it. That's what you're hiring.
For a founder, that's the difference between a clever assistant and a teammate you can hand work to. You don't manage the model. We do. You get the work.
Most founders hear "looks interesting" and learn nothing. Alex gives you the read an investor won't say to your face.
Paste your business plan or summary, or drop a link to your deck. About five minutes.
A managed agent reads it against a stage-aware rubric (team, opportunity, traction, ask), weighted for the stage you're actually at, not a generic checklist.
A fundability score, the strongest and weakest parts named plainly, and the one or two things worth fixing before you raise.
At pre-seed the bet is team and opportunity; at Series A it's traction and unit economics. The rubric reweights to match, using your raise as the maturity signal, so you're judged against the right bar.
Every plan has one thing that sinks it first. Alex finds it and says it plainly, with the reasoning, so you can fix the real problem instead of polishing the deck.
Market size, defensibility, why-now, why-you. The questions you'll face in the room, answered before you walk in.
The evaluation is tuned against the judgments of working venture investors, not a model's guess at what sounds fundable.
Alex is the first managed agent we've put to work, and the one you can use today. Send a business plan or a pitch deck and Alex returns a fundability read: a score, the strongest and weakest parts named plainly, and the one or two things to fix before you raise.
To show the work, we ran five real pitch decks through the same evaluation, scored exactly as they stood at the time, from generational winners to companies that folded. Misses included.
The fundability read is the first managed agent. The rest of the team arrives as your startup needs it: the right agent at the right stage.
Want one of these when it's ready? Join the waitlist.
Investors weigh a few things, weighted by stage: the team and whether they've lived the problem, evidence that someone wants the product, the size and timing of the opportunity, and a clear ask tied to milestones. Early on, team and opportunity carry the bet; later, traction and unit economics dominate.
A managed AI agent is an AI worker that's provisioned for a specific role, supervised by a human, and accountable for its output, not a raw chatbot you point at a problem. The management layer (supervision, identity, accountability) is the product.
Most feedback is polite and useless. A fundability evaluation reads your plan the way an investor would and names the weakest part plainly, with the reasoning, so you fix the real problem before you raise.
It's free right now, and your plan stays confidential.
The evaluation uses a stage-aware rubric and is calibrated against the decisions of working venture investors, not a model's guess at what sounds fundable.
I'm Charles Stack, and I've been building internet companies since before the internet had a business model.
In 1992 I started the first online bookstore, three years before Amazon sold a book. In 2001 I founded Flashline, a marketplace for software components, later acquired by Oracle. For the last decade I ran Flashstarts, a Cleveland accelerator that funded dozens and coached hundreds of early-stage teams. I've worked the other side too, as an angel investor and screening-committee member at North Coast Angel Fund. I'm also a lawyer (JD, Case Western, intellectual property) with multiple US patents, one of which first put real-time price comparison on the web.
The pattern repeats: see where the technology is going a little early, then build the company that gets there. Managed AI agents are that bet now. Coworkers.Global is a staffing agency, not a tool vendor: every agent we place is provisioned, supervised, and accountable, the way you'd expect from someone you hired. Alex, our startup advisor, is the first one you can meet.
Confidential. A verdict back by email.
We're a startup too. Capacity is limited while we calibrate, and we read plans first-come, first-served.
