About CoffeeSpace Partner Roles

This is a CoffeeSpace Partner Role we work with select early-stage founders building ambitious, category-defining companies. We help them find their foundational hires through a mix of deep search, outbound, and semantic matching.


This particular role is with Humeo, a San Franciscobased AI product lab building the next interface of creative expression.


The Company Humeo

Humeo is building new interfaces for creation and expression in an AI-native world.


Today, less than 5% of the worlds 5.2B social media users create regularly not because they lack expertise, but because creation is still time-consuming, high-friction, and mentally demanding. Meanwhile, short-form video dominates attention.


Humeo believes AI can close this gap.


Their first product functions like an AI Short-Video Production Crew in Your Pocket:

  • AI Strategist Generates a personalized short-form content plan
  • AI Director Guides you through recording with interview-style prompts
  • AI Editor Produces polished, ready-to-post videos in minutes


This is just the entry point into a broader roadmap:


AI-accelerated expression, knowledge interfaces, and cognitive tools that help people create more with less effort and build a healthier relationship with attention.


Humeo recently raised $3.5M to accelerate this vision and is now expanding its early team. This is not a traditional opening its an opportunity to help define the product, shape the workflows, and potentially grow into a true founding role as the company scales.
