For founders

Tell us what you're building.

Minds Fund is looking for early-stage founders building agentic companies on top of Animoca Minds. If that's you, we'd like to hear from you.

Fit check

Is this the right match?

A good fit

  • You're building a product where Minds is a core layer, not an integration
  • You're pre-seed or seed stage with a strong technical thesis
  • You have evidence of building — shipped products, production systems, or real users
  • You're thinking about the company, not just the prototype
  • Solo founders and small teams (1–4 people) are both welcome

Probably not a fit

  • Your product could be built just as well without Minds
  • You're looking for a grant with no obligation to build a company
  • You don't have a technical co-founder or equivalent execution depth
  • You're at Series A or later — this is early-stage capital
  • You need a fixed investment guarantee before you start building
