Accelerator OS — by Fracxional

The operations layer your accelerator runs on.

Application volume doubles. Your team doesn't. Selection still runs on spreadsheets, email threads, and whoever remembers what the partners said. Accelerator OS is the selection funnel, scoring, and program operations infrastructure for accelerators, talent investors, and corporate innovation programs — built by an operator who ran it for real.

Every cohort, the same machine gets rebuilt by hand.

Hundreds or thousands of applications come in. Someone triages them in a spreadsheet. Scoring lives in another spreadsheet. Interview scheduling happens over email. The investment committee sees a deck someone stayed up assembling. Then demo day, then reporting, then it all happens again next cohort.

The selection decisions are the program's entire product — and they're made on infrastructure nobody would accept for anything else that mattered this much.

The judgment should stay human. Everything around it shouldn't need to be manual.

What Accelerator OS covers

Selection funnel

Application intake, triage, scoring rubrics, shortlisting, interview scheduling, and IC decision views — one pipeline from first application to final cohort.

Program operations

Mentor and judge coordination, cohort management, email and reminder automation, no-show handling. The work between selection and demo day.

Reporting & analytics

Live scoring dashboards, partner and LP reporting, demo day analytics, alumni outcome tracking. The numbers your stakeholders ask for, generated instead of assembled.

Built for how your program actually works

The same infrastructure, shaped to four very different selection models.

VC accelerators

Cohort selection at volume: rubrics, panel scoring, selection week ops, IC decision flow.

Talent investors & residencies

Founder pipeline instrumentation: candidate scoring, cohort composition, stage conversion metrics.

Corporate innovation programs

Startup sourcing and scoring, corporate partner matching, PoC and pilot tracking, sponsor dashboards.

Local & emerging programs

A lightweight kit — applications, scoring, scheduling, demo day tools — localized for your market and language.

How it works

  1. Funnel teardown

    A fixed-price audit of your current selection and program operations: where the hours go, where quality leaks, what to automate first. You get the roadmap whether or not we build together.

  2. Build

    A scoped, milestone-based build — typically 3 to 8 weeks depending on program complexity. Working system, your team trained, documentation handed over.

  3. Live cohort support

    Optional ongoing support through your next intake: analytics, iteration, and adjustments as the program evolves. Month to month, no lock-in.

Why Fracxional

  • Built by an operator, not a vendor

    I ran operations and automation at Iterative, the YC-style accelerator for Southeast Asia — application triage through IC decisions through demo day. This is the system I wished existed.

  • Strict conflict and data walls

    I work with multiple programs and never share data, metrics, or dealflow between them. A written conflicts policy governs every engagement — ask for it.

  • Your data and customizations are yours

    Client data stays under NDA and gets deleted on request. Custom integrations and reports built for your program belong to you.

  • No exclusivity, no lock-in

    I don't accept exclusivity clauses, and you can walk away with everything that's yours at any point.

  • Based in the region

    Operating across Southeast Asia and Hong Kong, working in the timezones, languages, and program calendars you actually run on.

The engagement

Fixed price

Funnel teardown

One to two weeks. A clear-eyed audit and an automation roadmap you can act on.

Project fee

System build

Three to eight weeks, milestone-based payments tied to named deliverables.

Monthly retainer

Cohort support

Live support through intakes and demo days. Scoped to your program calendar.

Quoted per program, in USD, with milestone payments. Scope adjusts to your market — the rate doesn't.

Questions

Do you work with programs that compete with each other?
Not as primary operational consultant for two directly competing programs — same model, same geography, same stage — without full disclosure to and consent from both. A written conflicts policy governs this, and it's shared openly with every client.
Who owns what?
The core Accelerator OS — workflows, scoring frameworks, automation templates — is Fracxional IP, licensed to you. Everything built specifically for your program (integrations, data models, reports) is yours. Your data is always yours.
How long does a build take?
Three to eight weeks depending on program complexity, timed to land before your next intake. The funnel teardown that precedes it takes one to two weeks.
Do we have to replace our existing tools?
No. The OS connects what you already use — forms, spreadsheets, calendars, CRMs — and automates the gaps between them. Wholesale replacement is rarely the right answer.
What does it cost?
The teardown is a fixed price you'll know before committing. Builds are project-priced with milestone payments, scoped to your program — not billed by the hour. Specifics come with the proposal.

Your next cohort deserves better than spreadsheets.
