Residency isn't about getting everything right - it's about quickly finding out where you're wrong and adapting rapidly. We believe that great startups aren't built from opinions - they're built by relentlessly testing assumptions against real market feedback.
If you're a builder committed to action, accountability, and evidence over ego, Residency is designed specifically for you. You'll learn exactly how to build less and sell more, validating your product with paying customers as early and efficiently as possible.
Core Principles We Live By
Be Less Wrong Over Time
Great products emerge from continuous iteration - not perfection. We help you rapidly identify what's wrong with your idea so you can adapt fast and accurately to the market.
Accountability as a Partner
Building something valuable is tough. You need a partner who will hold you accountable to relentless execution and market realities. That's exactly what we do.
Build Less, Sell More
Stop guessing. Residency focuses on selling before scaling, ensuring you're always aligned with real customer needs - not your assumptions.
Market Evidence Over Opinion
It's not about what we think - it's about what the market tells you. We teach you how to leverage real-world data to consistently make better decisions and accelerate growth.
We measure the performance of our support in two ways:
$1M ARR
Can teams monetize the value they are generating in the market?
18 months
Are teams achieving that in 18 months or less?
First 3-6 months
Value Baseline
Prove the problem is worth solving
1st Customer
Get someone to pay you $
X
Get a statistically significant # of people to pay you $
12 - 15 months
10X
Get 10X more people to pay you $
$1M+
Get to $1M+ ARR
Rapidly Scaling Teams
Teams that scale are different. We believe these tenets are what separates the fast from the slow.

No builders, no velocity.
Teams that have builders on their team, scale faster.
Be less wrong over time.
Teams with the discipline to learn from their efforts, scale faster.
Build less, sell faster.
Teams that limit wasted resources and focus on market validation, scale faster.
