About TheIncubatorPro

What the site is

TheIncubatorPro lists startup programmes and the facts founders ask about first: what a programme invests, the equity it takes, any fee, who can apply, and when applications open and close.

Every listing is built from the programme’s own pages, names each source with the day we read it, and shows the day we last verified it. When a programme has not published a fact, the listing says "not published" rather than guess.

Alongside the listings, our guides explain how programmes work and what to check before you sign, with every figure linked to its source, and our calculators put numbers on an offer.

Who it is for

• Founders choosing where to apply, comparing deals or checking a deadline.
• Students and researchers looking for university programmes, grants and competitions.
• People who run programmes and want their dates and terms shown accurately. Listing is free.

Independent, and not affiliated

TheIncubatorPro is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with any programme listed here, and we do not sell programme-management software. The name was previously used by a software product; this site has no connection to it.

How we work

We read each programme’s own pages, record what they say and when we read them, and re-check every listing each month. Our methodology explains what "verified" means, how we handle facts a programme has not published and how to send a correction.

Programmes do not pay to be listed, and we do not sell placement, rankings or reviews.

Guides are written and checked by TheIncubatorPro editors. We do not publish a figure without its source and its date.
