Foundcheck · Concept Prototype

See if your startup checks out.

Foundcheck's engine cross-checks your claims against your own numbers, scores you against real funded startups (and a few legendary flops) so you can see exactly how you stack up against the competition, and returns a verdict — with the reasoning behind it. Have documents, or don't — either way, you get a real score.

No pitch deck or financial model yet? The quiz gets you a real Foundcheck Score in under 2 minutes — no documents required.

How this works

Two ways in, one verdict.

Upload materials or answer the quiz — pitch deck, business plan, financial model, and bios if you have them; a 12-question quiz if you don't. Nothing leaves your browser in this prototype.
Foundcheck scores six categories — Team, Market, Traction, Financials, Consistency, and Risk — shows exactly why, and compares your score against real funded startups (and a few famous flops).
Take action — get recommendations from our team of Silicon Valley startup advisors, apply to the Accelerator, or unlock a seed funding offer if you score high enough.

Foundcheck Score

Why this score

Every line below is generated from the material you actually submitted.

How you compare

Real funded companies, real funded failures, and a couple of Silicon Valley legends — for scale.

Our team of Silicon Valley startup advisors specializes in closing exactly this kind of gap — the categories separating a "funded" score from where you are now.
Reference scores are illustrative, hand-set for this prototype based on each company's well-known public story — not pulled from real deal data. Pied Piper and Aviato are fictional, from HBO's Silicon Valley. The industry comparison above references a real, currently operating company.

What's next

Ways to act on your Foundcheck Score.

Our Team of Silicon Valley Startup Advisors

Six advisors, one per category, each with their own specialty and notes on your submission.

In a production build, each advisor's notes would be generated by an LLM reasoning over your full documents plus comparable-deal benchmarks. This prototype's advice is generated from the same rule-based checks that produced your score — the personas are a stylized presentation layer on top of that real logic.

Deck & Financial Model Builder

Our team builds your pitch deck, business plan, and/or financial model with you — so your next Foundcheck Score (and your first real investor conversation) has something real to stand on.

What do you need built?

Foundcheck Accelerator & Incubator

Weeks 1–4 · Foundation

Team structure, market sizing, and narrative — closing Team Credibility and Market Opportunity gaps.

Weeks 5–8 · Traction

Go-to-market sprints and traction instrumentation — closing Traction Evidence gaps.

Weeks 9–12 · Fundability

Financial model hardening and investor-readiness review — closing Financial Soundness and Consistency gaps.

This is a simulated, score-derived offer for internal concept testing only. A real Foundcheck would require full underwriting, legal review, and committee approval before any funds move — no money changes hands in this prototype.

About Foundcheck

An internal concept prototype — beta v2.

Foundcheck is a "truth engine" for startups: upload your pitch deck, business plan, financial model, and founder bios — or take the 2-minute quiz if you don't have those yet — and get scored across six categories (Team, Market, Traction, Financials, Consistency, and Risk) using logic that reads your actual numbers and claims, not random or fabricated output.

This build exists to test the product experience from a user's perspective before anything is built for real. It is not a licensed investment adviser, broker-dealer, or funding source, and no real scoring, advisory, acceleration, or funding services are provided.
