Krelva joins Harvard Business School’s HBS Foundry Bootcamp

Buffalo startup Krelva has been accepted into the HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School as it prepares to launch Krelva Meet, a paid live-room platform for futures day traders. The company says the product is designed to pair traders with others at the same verified skill level, with waitlist access now open.

Why it matters: - Krelva is trying to solve a core problem in day trading: beginners often do not know where to start or whose advice to trust. - The startup’s new product, Krelva Meet, is built around verified skill levels and small live rooms, aiming to make trading less isolated and less dependent on noisy online forums. - Acceptance into the HBS Foundry Bootcamp gives the pre-launch company a new platform as it builds toward its first check.

What happened: - Krelva, a bootstrapped Buffalo startup focused on futures day traders, was accepted into the HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School. - The program begins in October. - Krelva is launching Krelva Meet, a platform for day traders to trade alongside others at a similar skill level. - The company’s waitlist for Krelva Meet is open now at krelva.com.

The details: - Krelva was founded in 2026 by Jerry Klamm and Foster Britton. - Britton started trading in 10th grade, at 15, and spent four years learning before settling on futures trading. - Klamm, 19, built Geometry Spot at 16, grew it to more than 175 million pageviews and $100,000 a month in revenue while still in high school, and left the University at Buffalo to run Krelva full time. - Krelva’s free beginner course teaches trading basics without promising profits. - Krelva Meet launches in October at $50 a month with a 14-day free trial. - The paid product is designed for Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 futures traders. - Krelva Meet uses small live rooms made up of traders at the same verified level. - Traders are verified before entering rooms, and Krelva is building direct brokerage verification so the check can happen automatically. - Room placement changes as traders progress: passing a prop firm evaluation moves a trader up, and getting paid out moves the trader up again. - Krelva is also launching a rating system tied to how traders answer questions during sessions rather than what they claim. - Krelva says the rooms are not signal services and do not tell users what to buy or sell. - The product is designed to focus on process, including reading the market before the open, discussing it with peers, and reviewing what was right or wrong afterward.

Between the lines: - Krelva is positioning itself against the chaos of trading content online, where beginners can face conflicting advice, fake screenshots, and unreliable credibility signals. - The company is using verification and group structure as its differentiator, not trading predictions. - The HBS Foundry Bootcamp has drawn attention partly because of its $699 price and its use of weekly live sessions paired with AI versions of HBS professors, which are meant to challenge weak ideas. - Klamm said he wants to see how Harvard’s AI-based learning format performs compared with a real professor. - Britton framed Krelva Meet as the room he wished he had when he started trading at 15.

What’s next: - Krelva Meet is set to open in October. - Krelva will continue building direct brokerage verification to automate trader checks. - Product demos of Krelva Meet are available on request. - The company’s founders are available for interviews.

The bottom line: - Krelva is betting that verified peer groups can make futures trading easier to learn, and it is using Harvard’s bootcamp to help validate the company as it launches.
