Forum 做什么

Forum is building the first exchange to trade on cultural attention. We create indices from search, social, and streaming data to measure what the world cares about, enabling users to go long or short on changes in relevance. Attention is the primary driver of business success in the digital age, but it has never been directly tradable. Forum introduces attention as a new asset class for managing cultural and demand risk.

The first exchange to trade on attention.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We're building an exchange where users can trade indices based on cultural attention derived from search, social media, and streaming data. Users can go long or short on shifts in what the world cares about, treating attention as a tradable asset class for managing demand and cultural risk.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We currently live and work in San Francisco, CA, and the company will remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we both live, and it's the ideal place for fintech startups with access to talent and investors.
