Fit Check

Full Assessment

Report

Acceptance

Only ~15% of seed-funded startups reached Series A within 24 months in the 2022 cohort (Carta).

You don’t have time to waste.

This pathway focuses you on what actually gets funded.


What You Get Immediately 

Your Investor-Grade Series A Report

Built from a two-step assessment:

  • Stage 1: Fit check - do you look like the companies that get funded in your vertical?

  • Stage 2: Deep dive - traction, burn, CAC/LTV, retention, funnel strength, revenue quality, team, and growth engine.

Your report shows:

  • Where you’re outperforming

  • Where evidence needs tightening

  • What Series A investors expect in your vertical

  • How you compare with companies that closed Series A in the last 18 months

This is the starting point for the accelerator.

What You Get If Accepted

If accepted, you join the Breakthrough Series A Accelerator, designed for founders with traction who now need precision.
