Architecture, code, and AI collided to turn an ambitious concept into a buildable design.
@DarkMatteris, one of Poolside members, used it on Casa do Poente, an observatory house in Alentejo. Every angle, every sightline, worked out by prompt before a wall went up.
We invest in the earliest stages then stay close: intros and technical help when you’re stuck.

A few founders at Poolside came from web3.
Some of the habits they picked up are surprisingly useful for building AI products. 🧵
3. Adapt quickly.
Web3 moves fast. Narratives shift and yesterday's assumptions can become obsolete.
That comfort with uncertainty is valuable when building in AI.
If that's how you build, you'll fit right in. Join us: poolside.co/apply
