I wonder if they do a cash/equity split for startups who are accepted to accelerators and may only have, say, $25k or so to last them 4 months and 3 people. $30k for a product isn't bad, but unfunded or bootstrapped startups will never be able to afford that.

Hi John

We do have partnership arrangements where a cash/equity split comes into play. Our real strength comes in being able to iterate on a product, responding to market feedback and usage patterns to provide product direction. So, we often get to work with startups who have received funding and are looking to make the most of it.
