The best researchers are going to define what AI becomes. Microforge exists to help them get into the right rooms.
We’re a team of researchers and engineers from Stanford and IIT, and only work with neolabs that make us want to quit our founder jobs and join them full-time. Our primary objective is to help you find the lab where you can do your life’s work.
Think of us as forward-deployed recruiters — cliché, we know. As researchers from Stanford and IIT, we’ve built AI agents and knowledge graphs on all research papers, Google Scholar, ArXiv, GitHub to identify and track 500K+ top researchers. For every role that we pick, we know the best researchers on day 1. We then tap into our Stanford and IIT networks to get differentiated access to these researchers that aren’t going to respond to cold emails. We’re working with some of the top neolabs that have raised >$2B, and we’d love to help you build your team.
