Flow Club
Flow Club is a virtual coworking community that runs live, hosted focus sessions where people work side-by-side on video to get into flow and beat procrastination. Built around 'body doubling' - the idea that the quiet presence of others working keeps you on task - each 50-minute sprint opens with quick goal-setting, runs on focused silence with music, and closes with a recap. Founded in 2020 by Ricky Yean and David Tran, the Y Combinator (S21) startup has become a popular tool for remote, independent, and neurodivergent workers, often described by its founders as 'Peloton for coworking.'

A Taiwanese immigrant who arrived in the US at eleven and attended Stanford on a full endowment scholarship, he is a three-time startup founder and two-time Y Combinator alum (S10, S21).
