What does the "Requests" Feature on Startups.com do?

What is the "Requests" Feature on Startups.com? What will I get from the "Request" feature?

On Startups.com, the "Requests" feature serves as a personalized intake tool that allows founders to outline their current business goal, enabling the platform to create a tailored roadmap to help them move forward.

When you create a request, the system uses your specific objective to connect you with the right resources, experts, and tools within the Startups.com ecosystem.

How it Works

Define a Goal: You start by selecting what you want to accomplish. Common categories include:

  • Raising Funding

  • Getting Customers

  • Building a Product (MVP)

  • Finding a Co-founder or Advisors

  • Hiring Talent
 
Personalized Roadmap: Based on the request you submit, the platform generates a step-by-step plan. For example, if you request help with funding, the system will:
  • Identify potential investor matches (often pulling from a database of 1,000+ matches).
  • Prompt you to upload your pitch deck for expert analysis.
  • Schedule 1:1 reviews with pitch deck specialists.
  • Provide templates for investor outreach emails. 

Direct Connections:
The request serves as a signal to the Startups.com team and their AI matching system. It triggers introductions to relevant mentors, advisors, or other founders who have solved similar problems.


In Short

The "Request" feature is the starting point for their accelerator service. Instead of browsing through thousands of articles and videos manually, you tell the platform exactly what you need help with, and it filters their "Master Classes," "Expert Answers," and "Investor Matching" tools into a guided path specifically for that goal.
