About Spade AI
Spade AI is building J.A.R.V.I.S. for market intelligence - a contextual AI to accelerate decision making and innovation for SaaS businesses.
SaaS product and go-to-market teams spend months and tens of thousands of dollars on research into market trends to inform strategy. This prevents them from responding quickly to fast changing market conditions and at risk of disruption. We seek to empower SaaS businesses with an AI-powered analyst offering real-time market insights when and how they are needed.
To get to our vision, we today offer an AI-powered intelligence platform which helps product organizations monitor and analyze the competitive landscape.
We are a pre-seed startup backed by Techstars, Antler, and leaders at companies like Google, Rapid7, Microsoft, and Grafana Labs.
The product is currently in closed beta, and will relaunch in September 2024.
About the role
Spade AI is looking to expand our founding team with smart, ambitious, resilient, entrepreneurial leaders who are willing to do whatever it takes to win.
This is not a job. This is a bet on yourself. We want team members who see this as their biggest investment, not just another career move.
If you are willing to grind it out for the next 5 to 7 years, through hell and high water, paycheck or no paycheck, then we want to talk to you.
