Meet the founders.

William Coburn is Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Psyntient, where he is building technology to redefine how consciousness is explored, understood, and evolved.

He believes most approaches to inner exploration today are fragmented, unstructured, and fundamentally limited by a lack of personalization and continuity. Psyntient exists to challenge that—bringing together AI, immersive environments, and biometric feedback to create systems that make inner experiences measurable, navigable, and optimizable over time.

His work is rooted in firsthand experience and a simple principle: the most important problems are the ones you feel directly. Rather than building from theory, William is focused on creating tools he would use himself—systems that guide, adapt, and evolve with the individual across every stage of their journey.

He sees Psyntient not as an incremental improvement, but as the foundation for an entirely new category—one where technology enables a deeper, more precise relationship with the human mind.

Peter Gold is Co-Founder & Chief Marketing Officer at Psyntient, where he leads growth, partnerships & go-to-market strategy.

He brings over 30 years of experience in digital marketing, ecommerce & brand building across multiple industries. As former Global CMO at SHOP.COM, he scaled annual revenue from approximately $400M to over $2B.

Peter co-founded an incubator & accelerator with Daymond John & has worked across ventures with over $20B in exits across multiple industries. He is now focused on helping Psyntient validate & scale its business model at the intersection of AI, immersive technologies & consciousness.

Woodley Brown is Co-Founder and Chief Ethics & Governance Officer at Psyntient, where he leads the development of the company's ethical, regulatory, and institutional frameworks. His work focuses on ensuring that Psyntient's technologies—at the intersection of AI, neuroscience, and subjective experience—are responsibly designed, accurately represented, and aligned with emerging standards in human-centered innovation.

He holds an M.A. in Bioethics from New York University and an M.Sc. in Philosophy of Cognitive Science from the University of Edinburgh. His academic work has focused on trust in emerging technologies and the structure of subjective experience, shaping his approach to governance in next-generation systems.

Woodley is particularly interested in how systems that deepen self-understanding and shared meaning can support human development and coordination at scale—creating the conditions for more aligned outcomes in both human and AI-driven environments.
