Objective

A startup studio, also known as a Venture Studio or startup factory, is an organization that builds several companies in succession. This style of business building is referred to as "parallel entrepreneurship". There are several types of models; the most common are builder studios, investor studios, and incubator studios.

A builder startup studio creates and develops companies mostly from internal ideas. Notable examples of are Atomic, eFounders, Pioneer Square Labs, and Rocket Internet. The companies pull ideas from within their own network of resources and assign internal teams, or recruit partners, to develop them.

Subjective

While bootstrapped with consulting revenue, Ghost Influence (studio) was a Builder Studio. It existed as, more than anything, a personal commitment to "Build cool shit and change the world"; the studio mentality incubated many of My Projects. And, in November 2017, created MythOS.

The Ghost Influence (studio) startup studio was renamed Spirit Studio and repositioned within One Inc Cooperative. The first product being Spiritual Bro and its Spirit Check; a spell check for your spirit.
