Customer Day — May 2026 Cohort
What can a founder build in 6 weeks with AI, customer evidence, and the right product thesis?
This Customer Day is the endpoint of Zenith's latest incubation cohort: a 6-week sprint where founders started with a real customer problem, learned to build with AI, chose a product archetype, and tested their product with actual prospects.
Founders explored four AI-era product paths:
• Classic SaaS • Agent-as-a-Service • Agent-hosted skills • Agent-to-Agent services
Each founder picked an archetype, built toward it, and pressure-tested the decision with customer conversations, demos, objections, and commitment asks.
What you'll see: • The customer problem each founder chose • The product or agent they built • The archetype they selected — and why • Real customer evidence: quotes, objections, demos, LOIs, pilots, or hard "no" signals • What changed after customers saw the product • What they would build next
No pitch deck theater. The bar is truth quality, not polish.
Who should come: • Founders exploring AI-native products • Operators with domain problems they want to turn into software • Investors interested in early AI agent companies • Builders curious about how non-technical founders can ship with AI
Format: Top cohort teams present live, followed by Q&A with Zenith and invited guests.
Hosted by Zenith Venture Studio — we build and invest in B2B AI agent companies.
