Running programs is harder than it should be

You're managing startups, mentors, partners, and funders—while trying to actually deliver impact. And every cohort feels like starting from scratch.

🔄

Every cohort is improvised

Same emails sent manually. Same explanations repeated. Same documents recreated. Your team reinvents the wheel every three months.

💬

Mentorship doesn't stick

Mentors give advice, but founders don't execute. Conversations happen, but decisions don't follow. Good intentions, inconsistent outcomes.

👁️

Progress is invisible

You only find out who's struggling at demo day. By then, it's too late to help. You're managing blind.

📊

Reporting is painful

Every funder meeting means a scramble. Your team spends days chasing updates to create reports that feel hollow.

🔥

Your team is burning out

Program managers spend more time chasing than enabling. Peak periods are chaos. When people leave, program quality drops.

📈

Growth adds overhead

More startups means more meetings, more tools, more coordination—not more impact. You scale effort, not results.

What changes with Nova

From reactive firefighting to proactive program leadership. From scattered execution to systematic impact.

How you're different after Nova

These aren't features. These are the outcomes that matter to you and your funders.

01

Programs that scale without losing quality

Nova turns your programs into reusable execution paths—so every cohort builds on the last one, instead of reinventing it.

Result: Teams report 70% less setup time per cohort. Cohort 5 outperforms Cohort 1.
02

Mentorship that leads to action

Mentors contribute asynchronously to specific decisions and challenges, with shared context and follow-through. No more conflicting advice.

Result: 3x more mentor engagement. Faster founder decisions.
03

Visibility without micromanagement

See real progress, blockers, and momentum across startups—without chasing updates or relying on vanity metrics.

Result: 10+ hours saved per week on status updates and reporting.
04

Mentors flexibility

Mentors have more flexibility to provide individual feedback and advice that is concrete and better adapted to their busy schedules. No more coordination nightmares.

Result: Higher mentor retention and more actionable guidance.
05

Startup teams that actually execute

What's learned is shared, worked, and executed with the team in a collaborative and facilitated space for progress. Knowledge doesn't stay in one person's head.

Result: Faster milestone completion. Stronger team alignment.
06

Scalability without the chaos

Less turnover in your teams as stress is reduced. Growing is easier and retained team members maintain internal knowledge so you can keep improving the experience and outcomes.

Result: Support 2x more startups without adding headcount.

"Before Nova, every cohort felt like controlled chaos. Now our program runs itself, and I actually have time to focus on what matters—helping founders succeed. Our last cohort was our best, and we didn't add a single person to the team."

Frequently asked

Most teams are running their first program on Nova within a week. We help you migrate your existing program structure and train your team. Start with one cohort—no need to change everything at once.
Yes—because Nova doesn't require perfect adoption to work. Mentors can contribute asynchronously on their schedule, with clear context about what's needed. No training required, no new habits to build.
That's actually valuable signal. Nova shows you early who's engaging and who isn't—so you can intervene before demo day, not after. The system works even with imperfect participation.
Nova is a process-based platform with AI-powered features. Our focus is on setting up a base structure that is repeatable and reusable, with the flexibility needed so each startup is guided and focused on results—while coordinating all stakeholders for you, without making your team busier. Nova isn't a document-based platform or task management tool. While whiteboards and tasks can be found within a process, we believe: "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your processes."
Contact our team to get a walkthrough on how other organizations like you build their programs and start trying it—so there's zero financial risk. You can also start with a monthly plan and if you don't see value in the first few weeks, you can cancel. Most teams see immediate time savings just from having a structured, reusable program template.
