what's in it for you

We provide a fully individualized acceleration package - no equity, fees, or hidden costs. Our team supports you in key areas like B2B sales, feature prioritization, fundraising, and hiring, all tailored to your unique needs to ensure the most efficient use of your time.
How does it work? Through a guided process, the team gains a deep understanding of your situation, aligns on measurable goals, and partners with you to accelerate growth.

our acceleration process
diagnosis phase
We dive deep into understanding your unique business model. Through 1:1 founder interviews, sales call shadowing, customer feedback, and product demos, we thoroughly assess your current status. Our findings are then synthesized to validate key challenges, ensuring a clear path forward
objectives phase
We synthesize our findings and set clear, shared objectives. In a 1:1 OKR (Objectives-and-Key-Results) session with an expert, you'll define OKRs tailored to your acceleration. From there, we create an individualized acceleration package to ensure every step aligns with your objectives.
acceleration phase
Together, we align on next steps and identify the right experts and mentors to fast-track your progress. Bi-weekly sparring sessions with xdeck buddies keep you on course, while founder-led xdays focus on sales, product, and fundraising. You'll also receive monthly mentoring and expert introductions as needed. All designed to accelerate your growth.
alumni phase
You will join our xdeck alumni network after acceleration, becoming part of a strong and impactful community. Connect with a vibrant network of over 100 startups, 15+ partners, and 25+ mentors. Together, we foster entrepreneurship and innovation through expert sparring and continuous collaboration.
our mentors
You'll be paired with an experienced founder who understands your challenges. In 1:1 sessions, they'll offer tailored advice, help you scale, and maintain an open mind for your needs. From founders, for founders.
