Startup Empire review

Startup Empire charges $249.92 a month, which puts it among the more expensive listings on Skool.

A review on the numbers, not an opinion: nobody here has joined Startup Empire, and nothing below is a verdict.

Startup Empire is a Skool community for entrepreneurs that calls itself the gym membership for entrepreneurs.[1] Created in September 2023, it is run by the CEO of Late Checkout, a holding company that builds community-based internet businesses.[1][2] Its approach is to avoid building products nobody wants: get traction fast, learn what works, and make progress or pivot.[1]

About Startup Empire

Members get weekly live jam sessions for feedback and trends, workshops on vibe coding, marketing and operating, and material on emerging trends and startup ideas.[1] The group also describes a library of 100+ ACP guides and tactical playbooks, plus builder and automation templates.[1] A YouTube channel presents Startup Empire as tools, tips and tactics to build businesses of the future, under the line "Everyone should start a business."[3]

Late Checkout starts each of its businesses as an internet audience or community.[4] Its portfolio includes a design firm for products, interfaces and agents, a site for spotting trends and startup ideas, and a service that automates marketing tasks with AI.[2] The operator also writes a weekly newsletter called Greg's Letter, covering startup ideas and business building, and jams on business ideas in a podcast.[2][4] By the operator's own account, earlier companies include Islands, a community company acquired by WeWork, and the operator was briefly WeWork's Head of Product Strategy.[2][4]
