The pace of life is accelerating and psychologists point to prospection—envisioning the future— as the key to flourishing in this next era.

Instead of using tech for doomscrolling and disconnecting, what if we designed a platform around our core needs - autonomy, competence, and relatedness - to flourish?

Telos is a positive psychology-trained AI life coach that empowers you to become your future self, with others.

We are going after the root cause of today's youth mental health crisis and loneliness epidemic. Our mission is to build a world on purpose.
‍
To do that, we are assembling a founding team based in New York City. We are looking for ambitious, high-integrity leaders to fill the following roles:
