We're not trying to compete with WeWork on amenities. We're trying to compete on the quality of the people you'll meet here.

We're looking for serious founders building venture-scale companies who will contribute to and benefit from a tight-knit founder community. Application requires a short pitch about your startup and what you're working on. We meet every applicant in person before extending an invitation.

Pre-seed through Series A. If you're building something with real ambition and need a place to do the work alongside other people doing the same, this is for you. We'll occasionally make exceptions for established founders between companies.

Four weekly themed sessions where the community comes together. Show & Tell (demo what you're building), Idea Jam (work through a problem with peers), Office Hours (with rotating expert guests), and Founder Hangout (unstructured time over food and drinks). Members get access to all four; Residents and Dedicated Desk holders get them plus 24/7 access.

Demo nights, founder dinners, fireside chats with operators and investors, occasional workshops on hard topics (fundraising, hiring, sales). Members and above get first access; we open select events to the broader Charlotte founder community.

We expect everyone here to be working on real businesses with real ambition. We expect mutual respect, generosity with time and introductions, and a willingness to be challenged. We do not tolerate jerks, takers, or people who can't keep a confidence. Read the house rules for the long version.

Yes, with a member host. Members and above can bring guests for meetings or a single visit. Demo nights and select events are open to the broader Charlotte founder community.

Coworking spaces optimize for square footage. We optimize for the people in the room. A few resident startups in a historic house, hand-picked for fit, with weekly events designed to create the kind of collisions that produce breakthroughs. It's not a workspace. It's a community.

No. We don't take equity, run programs, or pretend to know how to build your company better than you do. We provide the space, the people, and the rituals. You provide the work.

Not directly. We're not a fund. The CLT Startup House is a space and a community. If you build something compelling here, the investors who pass through, and the founders who become your neighbors, will form their own opinions.

StealthX is the AI consultancy that founded the house and serves as its anchor partner. They get founding-partner access; you get a working demonstration of what AI-powered execution looks like. Members get exclusive workshops on how to use AI to ship faster.

Fill out the short application. We'll get back to you within 3 business days to schedule a tour and a conversation.

Absolutely. Schedule a tour any time. The porch is always open. We'll show you the space, answer questions, and you can decide if it feels like the right fit before applying.
