Nas.com Raises $27M in Series A Funding

Apr 18, 2026 | By Startuprise io

Nas.com, a NYC-based provider of an AI platform built for the solopreneur economy, has raised $27 million in a Series A funding round led by Vinod Khosla and Nicole Fraenkel at Khosla Ventures.

The round also saw 500 Global participate alongside angels, including Shuo Wang, co-founder of Deel; Stanley Tang, co-founder of DoorDash; Scott Adelson, CEO of Houlihan Lokey; and Tim Ferriss, author of The 4-Hour Workweek.

The company plans to use the funds to hire more people, improve its AI products, and expand into the United States, Mexico, and Latin America.

Nas.com v3 can now do what used to need a full team. You just take a photo of what you want to sell, and it handles the rest—creating the product, building a storefront, writing marketing content, and even helping you get your first customer, all without needing technical skills.

The Solo Economy is growing fast. In January 2026 alone, the U.S. Census Bureau recorded over 530,000 new business applications. About 29.8 million people in the U.S. run their own businesses, generating $1.7 trillion in output. Globally, around 150 million people are solopreneurs and this number is expected to grow by another 100 million in the next five years as AI changes the job market. While the creator economy serves a small group, the solo economy is open to everyone.

"The next wave of wealth will not come solely from Fortune 500 companies. It will come from hundreds of millions of people who finally have the same tools, reach, and opportunities that used to be reserved for those who went to the right university, lived in the right city, or knew the right investor. This is one of the greatest wealth-creating opportunities in the history of humanity," said Vinod Khosla, Founder, Khosla Ventures.

Platforms like Etsy and Shopify help entrepreneurs set up and sell, but they don’t help them grow. For solo founders, the biggest challenge is not the idea or effort—it’s finding the first paying customer. Nas.com aims to solve that from the start.

Nuseir Yassin grew up in a small town in northern Israel, earned a full scholarship to Harvard, and left a high-paying job at 24 to travel and share stories from 64 countries, gaining 70 million followers and billions of views. Through meeting people around the world, he saw that many wanted to start something on their own but felt it was too hard to begin.

People using Nas.com have turned their skills into income. A farmer in Mexico earned $20,000 in a few months, a yoga instructor in Singapore made $100,000 in 14 months, and a seamstress in Texas now sells to global customers. Some top users have made $1–2 million in their first year, and over 90% of 20,000 paying users run their businesses alone, using a $29/month platform instead of multiple expensive tools.

"I built this for the person I kept meeting at every meetup in every city around the world. AI is eliminating jobs. But it also just handed every person on earth something no platform ever has before: a way to replace their boss instead of being replaced. The person with zero followers, zero marketing budget, and everything it takes to build something real, except a way in. That person exists in every country on earth. Hundreds of millions of them. Nas.com is the door," said Nuseir Yassin, Founder and CEO of Nas.com.

"I invested because Nas.com is tackling the hardest problem every entrepreneur faces—finding customers—and the 2025 growth shows they're doing it at scale," said Maor Shlomo, Founder and CEO of Base44.
