The Sahasra Program

An accelerator for the agentic era. We invest in a small group of agentic AI startups each batch, build intensively with them, and introduce them to a room of investors on Demo Day.

We back founders building agent-native AI companies — early, before the idea is obvious. Each batch, we invest in a select group, work with them closely through a focused program, and help them put agents at the core of their product and find product-market fit fast.

It doesn’t end on Demo Day. We and the founder community keep helping for the life of the company — and beyond.
