The Role

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 an AI-powered compliance automation platform that solves the National Pipeline Mapping System (NPMS) reporting burden for pipeline operators.

What are we exploring?

Pipeline operators face federally mandated NPMS submissions annually, a process rife with GIS complexity, high stakes for errors (penalties up to $200K/day), and manual workflows still reliant on consultants. As regulations tighten and the scale of pipeline infrastructure grows, these compliance pressures will only increase.

The opportunity is to build an agentic platform that automates NPMS submissions end-to-end: validating geospatial data, packaging metadata, generating OSAVE-ready files, and providing always-on compliance management. This wedge creates a path to expand into adjacent oil & gas regulatory workflows, including emissions reporting and PHMSA certifications.

With every operator in the U.S. mandated to comply annually, this is a high-pain, no-choice market where AI automation can become critical infrastructure.

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:
  • Early-stage operator experience, and expertise in one or more of the following areas: GIS data management, oil & gas compliance, regulatory tech, or enterprise SaaS

  • The ability to attract, hire, and lead world-class teams

  • 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.
