A space for founders to build, scale, and launch on Monad from the heart of Manhattan.
Where founders come to build.

Everything you need
to build and scale.

Once a month, every team takes the floor and shows to the others what they shipped.
Investors in the room
VCs and angels come through for fireside chats, and several work regularly from The Studio.
Pitch practice
Structured sessions to craft your storytelling and public speaking skills.
Hands-on founder support
Pitch deck, GTM plan, and fundraising strategy, and help to run your investor outreach like a proper pipeline.
100% equity-free

Monad is the fastest EVM-compatible L1: 10,000 TPS, sub-second finality, low fees. Your existing code, tooling, and wallets work unchanged. The Monad Foundation team works steps away. Whether you're all-in on Monad, multichain, or still choosing where to build, this is the place to do it.

Teams building from our Manhattan space.
Where everyone builds in the open.
You share what you're learning. You sit in on other teams' sessions. When the founder next to you is stuck on something you solved last month, you help. The Studio works because everyone puts back into it, and that's what makes it worth being in.
More than a desk.
Hackathons, demo nights, fireside chats, panels, and founder dinners run out of The Studio year-round. Members get priority access to most events the Monad Foundation hosts.
VCs, angels, and mentors are welcome.
VCs, angels, and mentors can work from The Studio alongside the teams building on Monad. You get daily proximity to some of our most promising early-stage teams and a front-row seat to what's shipping. In return, we ask that you contribute: join a fireside chat, give office hours to founders, or sit in on a pitch session. Your perspective is useful.
FAQs.
The Studio is built for teams building on Monad. That includes teams all-in on Monad, multichain teams that support it, and teams evaluating where to build next. If you're serious about shipping on the fastest EVM-compatible L1, your vertical doesn't matter: AI, payments, DeFi, edtech, whatever you're building.
No. Zero equity, zero fees, zero strings.
We expect you to contribute to The Studio. Show up to sessions, share what you're learning, help the teams around you. If you're just looking for a desk and nothing else, this isn't the right fit.

We're sector-agnostic. DeFi, payments, AI, gaming, infrastructure, consumer — if it makes sense on Monad, we want to hear about it.
Access is granted on a quarterly basis and renewed based on how actively you're building and contributing to The Studio. Most teams stay for several months.
Yes. VCs, angels, and mentors can apply to work from The Studio alongside the founding teams. We ask that you contribute by joining fireside chats, giving office hours, or sitting in on pitch sessions.
