For Accelerators & Incubators

Get your cohort churn-ready
before Series A.

Your portfolio companies are building fast. But the ones that can't answer "what's your retention strategy?" in investor meetings are the ones that stall. We fix that.

Let's talk about your portfolio
The Gap

Early-stage companies don't have a churn problem. They have a churn blindness problem.

Most companies in accelerator programs are focused on acquisition and product. Retention infrastructure doesn't exist yet—and by the time it shows up in the metrics, it's already eroded months of growth.

Series A investors are increasingly asking about retention health, cohort economics, and net revenue retention. Your companies need to be ready with answers, not excuses.

Why Now

The retention conversation has
moved to the boardroom.

Investors at every stage are scrutinising retention metrics more closely than ever. Here's why it matters for your program:

Series A due diligence has changed

Investors now ask about cohort retention, NRR, and churn root causes during diligence. Companies without clear answers lose momentum—or the deal.

Capital efficiency is the new growth

The "grow at all costs" era is over. VCs want to see that your portfolio companies can retain the revenue they're acquiring. Governance proves it.

Retention differentiates your program

Offering retention governance as part of your accelerator program is a meaningful differentiator for founder recruitment and LP reporting.

Early intervention compounds

Companies that install retention infrastructure early don't just avoid churn—they build the muscle memory to govern it as they scale. The ROI compounds over every subsequent funding round.

Let's build retention readiness
into your program.

Whether it's a workshop for your current cohort, diagnostics for select companies, or a standing portfolio partnership—we'll find the right fit.
