I built TechstarsGPT as your AI coach when applying for Techstars and the $220,000 in funding. Drop a comment and I’ll send you the link !

I took the advice and application guide we typically share with founders and built a custom GPT around it.

This GPT acts like a coach and not your ghostwriter, and can review your application, help create one from scratch or even adapt an application you already have for another accelerator and turn it into a Techstars application.

Backstory: over the years I’ve noticed more and more AI slop in the applications, mostly because of bad prompting and also because founders might have not used the guide I share every application season. Doesn’t mean they are bad companies, just bad writing. We also host office hours but don’t have enough time to do individual personalized reviews for the thousands of founders that want one. So rather than just publish my guide again, I put this together in the hopes it can be more helpful!

As is to be expected, your mileage may vary, it may hallucinate, there’s no guarantee and you should definitely write and verify your own application. Let me know how it worked for you !
