Quick answer

What is AcceleratorApp?

AcceleratorApp is accelerator management software that handles application intake, multi-stage review, cohort management, mentor matching, milestone tracking, events, and reporting in one connected system. Most teams are live within one to two weeks. Plans start from $499 per month.

The problem

Five tools, one cohort, none of it connected

01

Your toolstack grows, but your team doesn't

Typeform for applications. Airtable for evaluation. Calendly for mentor sessions. Notion for curriculum. A spreadsheet for cohort tracking. None of them connected, and everything downstream from a decision made in one tool has to be manually updated in three others.

02

Every new cohort resets the setup

A new application form. A rebuilt scoring rubric. A new mentor roster imported from a spreadsheet. Reviewer emails resent to confirm availability. Every cycle resets the configuration work, and it happens during the weeks when the previous cohort still needs your attention.

03

Program management becomes coordination management

Status update requests from founders. Mentor availability chasing. Reviewer reminder emails. Spreadsheet exports for board reports. None of this is program delivery. All of it is what happens when the tools do not do the connecting for you.

One operating system

What you see when you log in on Monday morning

AcceleratorApp gives your entire program a shared operating system. Each of the following views is live the moment you open the platform, no exports, no assembly, no asking around.

Application review

Walk into the committee meeting with the shortlist ready

Your panel is pre-assigned. Rubrics are set. Reviewers log in, score independently, and the comparison view builds automatically.

  • Blind or named scoring with weighted rubrics
  • Live comparison view across reviewers
  • AI-ranked shortlist on top of human review

Cohort health

See who needs attention before they fall behind

One grid. Every startup's milestone status, mentor session count, and engagement signal in a single view. You see what needs attention without sending a single message.

  • Live signals: milestones, sessions, engagement
  • Flagged automatically when a startup goes quiet
  • Replaces the weekly status meeting

Capabilities

Everything an accelerator program runs on, in one platform

Ten capabilities. All live in the platform today, including the AI features. Configurable per program, with the defaults a working accelerator director would set.

Application intake

Custom forms and automatic screening

Build your application form without a developer. Set eligibility rules that screen automatically, so your review queue contains only qualified applicants from day one.

Multi-stage review

Structured review and committee decisions

Configurable scoring rubrics, blind or named review, and a comparison view that builds in real time. The committee meeting starts from a shortlist, not a raw pile.

Cohort management

Cohort health without the status meeting

Every startup's milestone progress, mentor activity, and engagement signals in one grid. You see who needs attention before they fall behind.

Mentor matching

Mentor matching and session tracking

Founders book from mentor availability. Notes attach automatically to the startup record. Session history is searchable across the full program.

Milestone tracking

Milestones tied to evidence and deadlines

Define milestones per program. Startups submit evidence. Reviewers approve. Every status update happens in the platform, not in your inbox.

Reporting

Portfolio reporting without the export

Program metrics, cohort progress, and outcome data in dashboards you can share with funders and boards directly, with nothing rebuilt by hand.

Chat

Direct messaging built in

Message your team, mentors, and founders inside the platform. No Slack tab switching mid-review.

AI application scoring

AI scores every application

The AI evaluator scores each submission against your program thesis and criteria. Reviewers start from a ranked shortlist instead of a cold pile.

AI applicant coaching

AI coaches applicants before they submit

Founders get structured AI feedback on their application before they hit submit. Stronger applications land in your queue from the start.

AI reporting

Ask your data anything

Ask questions about your cohort in plain English and get instant answers. No exports, no pivot tables.

Built for programs that distribute funding

When your program awards funding, the post-award layer is built in

AcceleratorApp's Funding Module handles recipient onboarding, milestone tracking, compliance enforcement, disbursement approval workflows, and audit trails. No separate platform needed.

Why AcceleratorApp

What sets the platform apart

Built by people who ran programs

AcceleratorApp was built from inside a running accelerator. The defaults, the workflows, and the vocabulary reflect how programs actually operate, not how a vendor imagines they do.

40 to 60 percent less than legacy systems

Most enterprise program management platforms require six-figure annual contracts and months of professional services. AcceleratorApp plans start from $499 per month with no hidden setup fees.

Live within one to two weeks

Guided onboarding, no consultants required. Most programs run their first cohort within one to two weeks of signing.

Full migration included

We move your existing program data, application history, and configurations over. You don't start from scratch.

ISO 27001 certified

Required by corporate partners, government funders, and university clients. Your program data meets the security standard institutional funders expect.

FAQ

Questions program managers actually ask

A CRM tracks contacts and deals. AcceleratorApp manages the full program lifecycle: application intake, review, cohort management, mentor coordination, milestones, events, and reporting. Your applicants, mentors, and founders each have their own portal and workflow, not just a contact record.
Yes. Application forms are built with a no-code form builder, including conditional logic, file uploads, and multi-section layouts. Scoring rubrics are configured per program with weighted criteria. No developer required.
Yes. Each program runs as its own funnel with separate configurations, reviewer panels, and applicant pools. Multi-program teams typically manage 3 to 10 programs simultaneously on the platform from a single admin view.
Most teams are live within one to two weeks. Full migration is included for every new customer. Your existing data, application history, and configurations come with you.
Yes. AcceleratorApp is ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliant. A Data Processing Agreement is available on request. The platform is used by corporate-funded programs, government-funded programs, and university-backed accelerators that require these certifications.
Yes. Each cohort is a separate program configuration. When you open a new cycle, you clone the previous program, update the dates, and open applications. Configuration that took days the first time takes around 20 minutes on repeat cycles.
Yes. Mentors log in to see their assigned startups, availability calendar, session history, and notes. Founders see their application status, program schedule, assigned mentor, milestone checklist, and curriculum. Neither sees the admin panel or other participants' data.
Founders have their own portal from application through graduation. They track their own milestone progress, book mentor sessions directly, access curriculum content, and connect with the cohort community. When founders have their own portal, they stop emailing you for status updates.

Your next cohort runs on one platform.
