Seeking a Founder/CEO to create a security auditing platform for MCP, focusing on vulnerability identification and compliance in AI automation.
The summary above was generated by AI

Forum's Venture Studio brings together ambitious people, brilliant ideas, and capital to build the best B2B SaaS businesses in the world, from 0 to 1. In addition to capital and an idea, we provide founders with access to investor networks, fundraising support, and the resources needed to build transformational companies. Our model is designed to help you move faster, develop better insights, and build companies that have a higher success rate than startups built in any other way.

We’re looking for a Founder/CEO to build a security auditing platform purpose-built for MCP (Model Context Protocol), the emerging standard for AI agents to discover and execute tools autonomously.

What are we exploring?

As MCP becomes foundational to enterprise AI systems, vulnerabilities in MCP-powered agents pose significant security risks, from credential leaks to harmful, unintended tool executions. Yet today, there’s no dedicated platform to audit, validate, and monitor MCP-based agent workflows.

The opportunity is to build the first integrated MCP security layer: proactively identifying vulnerabilities, ensuring compliance with safety standards, and embedding guardrails into the MCP lifecycle from development through deployment.

With MCP adoption accelerating across major platforms (Microsoft, OpenAI, Postman), a specialized safety infrastructure provider is both timely and critical to enabling safe, enterprise-scale AI automation.

Forum derisks and accelerates the Founder path by:
  • A $250K USD investment, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your seed and Series A

  • A validation partner with proven playbooks, networks, and the systems to validate, unlock your ICP, ignite your sales pipeline, and beyond

  • The support of our experienced operating team – from business design, product development, growth, recruitment, legal, and more

  • Executing a winning GTM strategy to get to $50–100K ARR, and building the right MVP to ensure early traction

  • A community full of mentors, peers, and leaders

  • $100K worth of business perks

About you
  • Strong technical background in AI infrastructure, security, or developer tooling

  • Familiarity with MCP, agent-based architectures, or large-scale automation

  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to navigate complex technical and operational challenges

  • A collaborative approach, with the capability to build partnerships across technical and non-technical teams

  • A demonstrated passion for technology’s ability to change the world

  • A desire to be a venture-backed founder

  • Ability to collaborate in North American time zones

Please note, this is not an employment opportunity with Forum Ventures. If you are currently fundraising your pre-seed or Seed round, please pitch our investment team instead here.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
