OpenAI Grove
QuietOpenAI's program for technical talent at the earliest stage of company-building, successor-style initiative to the OpenAI Startup Fund's Converge cohorts.
Sectors
Grove's most recent confirmed cohort ran Jan 22 - Feb 27, 2026 (applications closed Jan 12, 2026). The earlier Converge/Converge 2 accelerator (2022-2024, $1M investment per company) appears inactive with no public cohort since 2024; Grove is the current active program from the OpenAI Startup Fund lineage.
