Lightning Pitch: Accelerat.io

ELEVATOR PITCH:

Yelp for accelerators.

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION:

Accelerat.io provides clear information on startup accelerators all around the world. Next to quantitative data about funding amounts and equity takes, it shows performance of companies that have been through them. We create more transparency and accountability for accelerators by sharing experiences and reviews from people who have been through them with their company. Currently there are entrepreneurs out there that are signing deal terms for accelerators that are not worth the equity they take. We’re a tool for (future) entrepreneurs to make smarter decisions in choosing their accelerator—the Yelp for accelerators.

All other sites covering accelerators are somehow invested in their reporting on accelerators. We’re 100 percent independent and transparent.
