Entrepreneurs are busy — survey fatigue means you only hear from a fraction of your portfolio.

A shared performance-measurement dashboard for Canadian accelerators and incubators — replacing manual spreadsheets with a connected platform that reduces reporting overhead and reveals ecosystem-wide patterns.
Stop chasing data. Start measuring impact.
Data intelligence for BAIs
The problem
Accelerators and incubators lose countless hours on manual data collection to understand and report their impact. Gathering data from multiple sources and asking entrepreneurs to answer ongoing startup surveys is time-consuming, unreliable, and often incomplete.
Challenges BAIs face every day
Short-term view
Most data captures a single point in time, missing the long-term trajectory of startups after they leave your program.
Resource strain
Staff spend days chasing data instead of supporting startups and running programs.
Disconnected data
Information lives in spreadsheets, CRMs, and email threads — impossible to get a unified picture.
Gaps in reporting
When funders and government ask for impact data, the numbers are incomplete and hard to defend.
Missing the full story
Revenue alone doesn’t tell the story — you need jobs created, funding raised, pivots, exits, and more.
Wasted time
Manual data collection and verification eats into limited team capacity every reporting cycle.
Lack of references
Self-reported data is hard to verify — stakeholders want sourced, referenceable information.
