The company is based in San Francisco and also has a sales office in Phoenix, Arizona and an engineering campus in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. Atomic has invested in stealth companies in the following sectors:

• Consumer health
• Payments infrastructure
• Education technology
• Medical technology
• Creator economy
• Energy technology
• Consumer goods
• Residential real estate
• Personal finance
• Food delivery
• Consumer mobile

Notable companies that have been funded by Atomic include Hims & Hers, BoomPop, and Bungalow.

Every Atomic company is co-founded alongside serial entrepreneurs with experience in building companies valued at over a billion dollars. Participating companies gain access to teams of functional experts in legal, recruiting, design, engineering, finance, people operations, human relations, and IT fields, as well as Atomic's funds. Atomic seeks people from all backgrounds to co-found new high-growth startups or to join as a founding team member at one of its early-stage companies.

The program lasts from three to nine months, during the course of which participants work directly with Atomic's general partners and extended team to cofound a company. At the end of the program, if Atomic deems the company suitable, it will receive an initial investment of $250,000, with the potential for greater investments when company milestones are met.
