Audos aims to launch 100,000 companies annually
Audos, a New York-based startup studio, just raised $11.5 million in seed funding led by True Ventures, with support from Offline Venture, Bungalow Capital, and angel investors like Niklas Zennstrom and Mario Schlosser.
Founded by Henrik Werdelin and Nicholas Thorne, Audos wants to make it easy for non-techies to build their own AI-powered businesses—aiming for hundreds of thousands of new startups each year.
How Audos works
Audos offers a platform where anyone can turn an idea into an AI company—with help from an AI copilot that guides users step-by-step through chat.
The platform uses smart tech for quick idea testing and customer outreach.
Instead of taking equity, Audos takes a 15% cut of revenue and gives founders up to $25K in funding plus hands-on support for building and marketing their products.
Audos has already launched over 100 startups
Even with just five employees, Audos has already helped launch over 100 startups—from virtual coaches to AI nutritionists—since its beta launch.
Their big vision: millions of micro-startups powered by accessible AI tools and funding, creating what they hope will be a trillion-dollar ecosystem open to everyone.
