LOOM connects scaling startups with senior fractional leaders — matched by AI, aligned by equity.
A full-time C-suite hire costs £150K+, takes six months, and adds permanent overhead you don't yet need.
Freelancers deliver output. They don't have skin in the game.
Your investors have operating partners. You don't. Not yet.
"The gap between investor support and founder reality is where startups stall."
Senior leadership access has always been gated by cost, relationships, or luck. Loom removes the gate.
Average time to close a senior hire — time your runway can't afford
Skin in the game from your average freelance consultant
Describe your gap. Loom's matching engine surfaces the right executives — by function, stage, sector, and fit. No recruiters. No wasted introductions.
Start cash. Evolve to equity. Or hybrid from day one. Loom structures the engagement — contracts, terms, and equity mechanics — so you don't have to.
The most senior executives on Loom can form syndicates — small, vetted peer groups who take equity positions together. You get a coordinated leadership layer, not a single adviser.
