Once you start filling out your application, keep in mind:
It doesn't have to take more than an hour if you're honest and concise. Tell us the state of the world, the good and the bad, and use plain language.
We invest in people. Focus more on the team, than the tech.
The team video is often where people get stuck. It shouldn't be hard. Just face a light or window, no high-quality production needed, and tell us about who you are, how the team met, and why you're awesome. Don't pitch. (You'll get to do that later). Just be yourself.
A low resolution product video with an ugly UI is 100x better than a marketing video with custom-produced music and sound effects.
Choose the accelerator which makes the most sense to you, but don't worry if they all appeal to you. We collaborate in the background to find you the best-fit.
Traction doesn't have to mean funding, revenue, or even signups. It could be progress on a prototype, surveys, LOI's, etc. Just show us some form of validation.
Never say you don’t have any competition!
Some stats:
- 3 out of 10 companies accepted had applied at least once before
- 0 out of 10 companies get in if they don't apply
