The Atoms platform, launched in 2021, has backed 40+ companies that have raised over $300M. With Google joining the new cohort as a direct cap-table partner, founders will access Google Labs, DeepMind researchers, and global distribution channels. Both firms emphasized there is no requirement to use Google products exclusively.
