The work speaks for itself.
Every semester we take on a few founders and work alongside them. Here's what that has looked like — published with their sign-off, the sensitive numbers left out.
Spring '26
AllPeople Marketplace
Bill Wollrab — founder of the Yard House, angel investor
Investor research, surveys, and validation testing ahead of their WeFunder raise. The outreach work alone would have cost about $5,000 through an agency.
SphereUs
Backed by Antler VC and angels
Mapped a crowded competitive landscape, sized the market, and built the go-to-market plan for a difficult space.
Mira Shoppe
Farheen Qadir — MIT and Wharton MBA, 20+ years in chemical engineering
Growth strategy and buyer targeting for a marketplace funding girls' education in the Middle East.
Orble (Munch Industries)
An automated boba vending concept
Go-to-market and launch marketing — campaigns, channels, and brand for a Wharton Startup Challenge semifinalist.
Fall '25
StackedHR
A VIP-X startup rethinking hiring
Our densest project — deep market research on hiretech, competitive mapping, and a full GTM strategy. Analysts came in knowing nothing about HR tech and left able to hold their own on it.
CultivatED
An EdTech nonprofit, AI test-prep
Connected them to Philadelphia schools, built a dataset of pilot partners, and ran the outreach to land their first programs.
Sinful Donut Lab
A solopreneur, allergen-free donuts
Campus market testing, brand work, and product validation for a healthier donut concept.
