About this listen

Hosted by Jack and Beth - co-founders of Satorus Group in peak startup chaos. Founders' Field Notes is a behind-the-scenes look at building a high-stakes AI intelligence company from the ground up. We talk about quitting 6 figure jobs, surviving near-death moments, geopolitics, and figuring it all out in real time. Sometimes it’s serious. Sometimes it’s unhinged. Just the stuff you wish people actually talked about.

  • Our 41 Hour Shift: We Launched
    Sep 16 2025

    In this episode, Beth and Jack take you inside the chaos of their 41-hour marathon to launch Version 1 of Sidney, Satorus Group’s in-house SOCMINT AI tool. From debugging at 4am to pulling each other through when energy ran out, they unpack what it really takes to push a product over the line under pressure. More than just a story of endurance, it’s about why having the right people around you matters—and how trust, resilience, and grit are the only way to survive startup life.

  • We Nearly Joined A Cult
    Aug 19 2025

    Running on no sleep, a Syria report that never made it out, and a “business meeting” that turned into a date—we’re hanging on by a thread.
