Air AI Residency

The Future is Being Written Today

AIR is a 10-week accelerator program in New York City, designed for design-led founders building consumer AI products that feel new, human, and deeply personal. Backed by Collaborative Fund and in partnership with Fictive Kin, AIR offers more than capital—it provides a creative space where intent matters more than scale, and taste is a competitive edge. The program includes workshops, feedback sessions, 1:1s with experts, and a creative workspace in Carroll Gardens. Founders receive tailored support, from investor speed runs to go-to-market strategies, and join a community focused on building the next generation of AI-first consumer products.
