Job Description

The way companies innovate is broken.

The systems built to create and protect ideas can't keep up with the pace of change. Today,

90% of S&P 500 company value is intangible (e.g., IP)

-- yet R&D and IP teams spend

half their time buried in manual work

, sifting through patents and paperwork instead of pushing the frontier forward. The tools of creating and protecting are stuck in the past.

We're here to fix that.

Ankar is building the

AI Platform for the Trillion Dollar Innovation Economy

-- a suite of tools that helps inventors

explore, create, and protect

ideas

. We're removing the friction from the invention process,

starting with IP protection and expanding toward creation and exploration

.


We're already seeing this vision come to life:

Achieved $1M+ ARR

, with 75% of this coming in the last 5 months

Loved by F500 companies & top law firms

, with 60% of new business from word of mouth

Assembled a world-class team from Palantir, Amazon, and BCG

to tackle the next frontier of invention creation and expanding into a $1T+ market.

Raised 3m from Index Ventures

, Founder of Hugging Face, CEO of Datadog, and product leaders from DeepMind and OpenAI.

We're now expanding the team and looking for builders who want to own ambitious projects autonomously, solve impactful & complex problems, and do their best work at Ankar.
