Adam Neumann, the initial driving force of WeWork and then the spiraling disaster that charred the company's edges, has a new business: Flow. Don't hope for much official explanation. All the site offers is "Live life in Flow," "coming in 2023," and a button labeled, "Join Us."

DealBook at The New York Times, which doesn't have a lot of solid information either, says that it's about transforming the rental residential real estate market.
