Investment Thesis

SeedReady believes that opportunity in entrepreneurship isn’t distributed equally and that good ideas die because founders get lost along the way. Their core philosophy centers on providing practical tools and resources that allow founders to get traction faster and reduce the risk of launching a startup. They focus on validating ideas and proving market opportunity before building product, emphasizing that ‘building products is easy – almost every failed startup has one. The hard part is proving the market, getting traction, and identifying a viable and scalable business model.’

What Sets Them Apart

Emphasis on validation and traction BEFORE product building - 'Don't think that it's going to be an easy 2-weeks, this isn't a classroom where you're learning startup theory. We're going to push you out into the real world'
Completely free programs with no fees, equity, or strings attached - 'Everything that works on the SeedReady Bootcamp does so on a voluntary/pro bono basis'
Rapid acceleration frameworks - founders make 'more progress in one week than most founders make in six months'
Focus on the four-fits model: Product-Market Fit, Channel Fit, Model Fit, and Market Fit
Live expert-led sessions combined with self-paced learning and daily 1:1 coaching
Strong community and peer support from cohort-based learning
