EXECUTIVE OFFICE · AI CLONE

AI Co-Founder

An AI co-founder is an AI clone that thinks and operates like a company builder alongside you. Claire frames your biggest unresolved decisions, weighs tradeoffs, sets priorities and turns them into owners and dates across your inbox, calendar, docs and team chat. She reports decisions closed, priorities on track and time freed for growth work to your dashboard.

Claire, should we hire two more AEs now or wait until after the raise?

Wait six weeks. Pipeline coverage is 2.1x and the last three hires took 90 days to ramp. If we close the raise in November, you hire into a stronger plan. The memo has both scenarios and the cash math.

Fine. Tell the VP of Sales and hold the job posts.

I drafted the note to the VP for you to send, since a hiring freeze should come from you. The two job posts are paused in draft, and I put a December 1 review on your calendar.

AI Co-Founder: questions buyers ask

What is an AI co-founder?

An AI co-founder is AI that works alongside a founder on vision, priorities and the hard business decisions. On Clone, it is a clone hired into the Founder role with its own permissions, memory of your company and access to the apps you choose. It frames decisions and drives follow-through while you keep the final call.

Does an AI co-founder replace a human co-founder or my leadership team?

No. Claire supports the people who own the company. She prepares decision memos, runs the operating rhythm and keeps priorities visible, so you and your leaders spend time deciding instead of reconstructing context. Equity, hiring, fundraising and strategy decisions stay with you and your board.

How does Claire decide what to prioritize?

She starts by learning your business model, stage, customers, constraints and the decisions you have not made yet. Then she ranks work by impact on growth and learning speed, names the tradeoff for each choice and limits the company to a few priorities at once. She tells you plainly when something should wait.

Which tools does the AI co-founder work with?

Claire works in Google Workspace for email, calendar and docs, keeps the leadership agenda in Notion, reads pipeline in HubSpot, joins meetings on Zoom and reports in Slack. Each clone is default-deny with object-level permissions you set, and 100% of her actions are logged so you can open the history from any chat.

How much does an AI co-founder cost?

Every Clone plan starts with a free trial. Paid plans are a flat monthly price with credits included, so there is no equity and no per-task fee. Enterprise plans start at $2,500 per month through Book a Demo. See current plans at clone.org/#pricing.
