About
Most "AI startup tools" give you a blank chat box. Fonda is different — it's a structured AI co-founder that runs a proven 14-step journey with you: Discover, Validate, Launch, Scale. It remembers every decision, interview, and pivot across sessions. It kills weak ideas before you waste months on them. It ships your landing page, business case, and MVP plan once validated. One clear next move, every day. Free to start.

FAQ
Does Fonda use the same underlying technology as ChatGPT?
No. Fonda runs on several large language models, not a single one, and combines them with proprietary tools built specifically for venture building. It is a purpose-built platform that layers structured startup context, guided workflows, and venture-specific outputs on top of multiple engines — not a general-purpose chat.
Do I need an idea to start?
No. Discover is step one. Your co-founder helps you find an idea that fits your skills and goals, then guides you through validating it. You can also bring your own idea and start at Validate.
How is Fonda different from ChatGPT for building a startup?
ChatGPT is a general-purpose assistant. Fonda is a structured platform built for founders — it runs a 14-step journey from idea to customers, generates specific outputs like lean canvases and pitch decks, and maintains context across your entire startup build. It does the work, not just the chat.
Who is Fonda for?
Fonda is built for first-time founders, career pivoters, and side-hustlers who want to build a real business without a large team or technical background. No coding or MBA required.
Is there a free version?
Yes. Start is free — meet your co-founder, build your Entrepreneur Profile, and get a first taste of the journey. Upgrade to Core or Pro when you're ready to validate and launch.
Is my data confidential and secure?
Yes. Your data is never shared with third parties or external models, and is not used for training. It is processed in a controlled environment and securely stored on AWS.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — 7 days free, no charge upfront. You get the full plan during the trial so you can build and see real value before you ever pay. On day 8 your card is charged $19, then $19 every month. Cancel before day 8 in two clicks and you won't be charged.
What's included in the plan?
Everything. One plan, $19/month: Marty your co-founder, market updates and dashboard, business ideas, market analysis and feasibility, ICP and interview guide, a full business plan, a website (domain and SEO included), an MVP plan, go-to-market, an investor pitch deck, funding matches, weekly action plans and analytics, and priority support. No tiers, no locked features.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No long-term commitment and no cancellation fees. Payments aren't refunded, but you can cancel any time and keep access until the end of the period you've paid for.
What happens to my work if I cancel?
Nothing is deleted. We never delete your work — your ideas, plans, and progress stay in your account. You keep access until the end of your paid period.
