Question 1

I've never started a company before. Can this still work?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Most of the founders we work with are starting their first company. You don't need startup experience — you need deep knowledge of a real problem. We handle the parts you haven't done before: building the product, finding the business model, raising money, and navigating the legal and operational setup. That's why we exist.

Question 2

How is this different from an accelerator?

Accepted Answer

Accelerators run fixed programs — usually 3 months — with dozens of companies at once. We join your team as a cofounder and stay as long as you need us. No batches, no demo days, no countdown clock. We work with a small number of founders at a time so we can go deep, not wide.

Question 3

What equity do you take?

Accepted Answer

We take meaningful equity — typically in the range you'd offer any cofounder — because we do cofounder-level work. The exact terms depend on how early you are and how much we're building together. But the principle is simple: we earn our stake by building alongside you every day, not by writing a check and walking away. We walk through the details openly in our first conversation.

Question 4

How much time do you actually spend with each company?

Accepted Answer

This isn't office hours. We work full weeks alongside a small number of founders at a time. Standups, product reviews, customer calls, code commits — the same rhythm you'd have with any cofounder.

Question 5

What if I already have a technical cofounder?

Accepted Answer

That's great — it means we can focus on the other gaps: sales strategy, fundraising, operations, design, or whatever your team needs most. We adapt to fill the missing pieces, not duplicate what you already have.

Question 6

I'm not technical. Is that a problem?

Accepted Answer

Not at all — that's the whole point. You bring the expertise in your industry and the relationships with potential customers. We bring the product development and design. Most founding teams work exactly this way: someone who knows the problem paired with someone who can build the solution.

Question 7

What stage should I be at?

Accepted Answer

Anywhere from napkin sketch to paying customers. The earlier you bring us in, the more we can shape together. But we've also joined founders mid-flight to help them scale what's already working.
