How does * operate?**Genova is a fundamentally new approach to how products are built. Genova is a studio with 4 product teams - each one building simple tools and software to enable millions of people to use the magic of Generative AI.


The 4 product teams are agile, release every day and build small, scalable products that generate loads of value for a lot of people.

If their product becomes profitable, the team will receive a percentage of those profits as bonuses.


The product pods are supported by the studio layer, which includes supporting functions, a kick-ass growth and marketing team as well as some of the top AI researchers in Europe.


Genova aims to always stay agile and fast - we aim to hire smart and experienced people, capping our headcount at 40 people in total.

If a product requires more people, it will become a spin-off with its own team.


Why *?**- We build faster than anyone else. We will fail and learn faster than anyone else.

  • We will fundamentally question everything and disrupt the status quo.
  • We are wellfunded but don't take VC funding. We only build for us and our customers.
  • We stay a startup forever. We will never fall for the trap of building a big corporation with politics, endless meetings and slow operations.
  • We have amazing fun as a team working with only top talent.
  • We leave our ego at the door and focus on the joy of building things together.
