A venture studio creating tech-for-good startups

We create purpose-driven startups from idea to exit.

Good add Ventures is a startup venture studio. We partner with founders to build world changing, breakout companies that leave a positive mark on the world.

Engineered to enhance human well-being

We operate on one uncompromising belief: technology must serve humanity, not exploit it.

The modern digital landscape is broken. Algorithmic noise, burnout, disconnection, and the erosion of truth and reality have become the norm. Attention is broken into micro-interactions and harvested for profit. We are building the fix.

We don’t just fund companies; we create purpose-driven startups from concept to scale. Our mission is to engineer solutions that enhance human well-being, not harvest it.

What we’ve built

We have selected the following three startups from our ‘ideas pool’ to actively work on:

Restorative rest

Combating the burnout epidemic by making effective power naps accessible to everyone, anywhere.

The real social network

Reversing digital disconnection by translating social intention into real-world gatherings. No feeds. No likes. Just connection.

Pure direct communication

A decentralised communications platform where brands own their audience and users enjoy content with zero ads and zero algorithmic noise.
