FutureSight is seeking an experienced and visionary Founding CEO to lead the launch of a new AI-native SaaS company that automates growth for SMB service businesses. Today, service operators rely on fragmented tools, manual follow-up, and disconnected marketing efforts — leading to lead leakage, slow response times, poor attribution, and inconsistent bookings. This product replaces that complexity with a vertical-specific system of AI GTM Agents that autonomously manage the full customer lifecycle — from first touch to booked job to repeat business — with clear, measurable ROI. This is not marketing software, not a CRM, and not an agency. It is a done-with-you / done-for-you AI workflow product, integrated into the operator’s system of record, designed to deliver what operators actually want: more booked jobs, higher retention, stronger local trust, and provable returns on spend. As Founding CEO, you will Win customers — Run pilots, shape pricing, and validate retention + expansion. Build the product — Work with FutureSight’s product/engineering pod to launch V1. Raise capital — Lead the seed round with our initial investment. Build your team — Hire your founding team and set the cultural foundation. About FutureSight FutureSight is a venture studio that co-creates and invests in B2B SaaS and Vertical AI startups alongside exceptional entrepreneurs.
