For Accelerator Coaches

For accelerator coaches who build startups at the whiteboard.

BoardSnap is an iOS app that turns whiteboard photos into structured summaries and action plans in ten seconds. For accelerator coaches, that means founder coaching sessions, pitch framework workshops, and business model design sessions produce clean written artifacts — the specific action plans that move startups from stuck to shipping.

What hurts today

Founder coaching sessions produce great whiteboard content but the startup leaves without a clear prioritized action list that survives until next week's check-in
Pitch preparation workshops — story structure, objection handling, investor Q&A prep — generate rich session content that the founder can't reconstruct from a photo
Business model canvas and lean canvas sessions produce important strategic clarity that founders need in a clean written format to execute from
Go-to-market planning sessions involve complex whiteboard logic — channels, sequencing, ICPs, unit economics — that needs to become a crisp GTM plan
Multiple coaching sessions per day across the cohort means you're running six whiteboards a day — the documentation burden is real
The gap between 'we identified the problem' in a coaching session and 'the founder fixed it' is where most coaching impact leaks

How BoardSnap helps

Snap a founder coaching session and the startup leaves with a structured action plan — specific tasks, owners, and timelines — not a board photo they interpret optimistically
Pitch prep sessions produce a written pitch structure document — story arc, objection responses, investor FAQ — that the founder practices from
Business model workshops produce a written business model summary — the value proposition, the customer segment, the revenue logic — structured for the founder's execution
GTM planning boards produce a prioritized go-to-market plan with concrete tasks and sequencing
Projects keep each portfolio company isolated — coaching history, action items, and founder context all scoped per company
Brand-aware AI writes coaching session summaries in the startup's language — the founder's product vocabulary, their market framing, their business model terminology

A day with BoardSnap

Founder coaching session
Work through the startup's key challenge at the board — diagnosis, root cause, options, decision. Snap. The founder receives a structured coaching summary — the diagnosis, the decision, and the specific action plan — before leaving the session.
Pitch prep workshop
Build the pitch structure on the board — story arc, key claims, supporting evidence, anticipated objections. Snap. BoardSnap produces a written pitch framework document that the founder uses to practice and refine.
Business model session
Work through the business model — customer segment, value proposition, channels, revenue model, unit economics. Snap. BoardSnap produces a structured business model summary the founder can share with investors and co-founders.
GTM planning
Map the go-to-market approach — ICPs, channels, sales motion, sequencing. Snap. BoardSnap produces a structured GTM plan with prioritized action items — specific enough to execute from.
Weekly check-in
Review last week's action items, identify the blockers, and set the next week's priorities at the board. Snap. The check-in summary tracks accountability and progress across the coaching engagement.

Features that matter for accelerator coaches

Brand-aware AI

Paste the startup's website or product URL. BoardSnap AI learns the company's product language, their market framing, and their business model — coaching summaries feel specific to this startup, not generic startup advice.

Projects per portfolio company

Each startup in the cohort gets its own project. Coaching session history, action item tracking, and brand context all scoped per company — the full coaching arc for each startup is searchable.

Tri-state action items

Coaching action items with open/in-progress/done tracking across sessions. The accountability mechanism that makes coaching impact measurable — not just 'we discussed it' but 'we tracked whether they did it.'

Pinned context

Pin the startup's pitch deck, their business model canvas, or their current strategy doc. Every coaching session chat already knows the startup's context — the AI chat gives advice grounded in the actual company, not a generic startup.

Offline queue

Accelerator programs happen in all kinds of venues. BoardSnap queues captures on-device and processes when signal returns — coaching sessions in conference rooms, borrowed offices, and demo day venues all get documented.

Frequently asked

Can BoardSnap help make coaching sessions more actionable for founders?

Yes — this is the core use case. Snap the board at the end of a coaching session. The founder receives a structured action plan with specific tasks and owners, not a board photo they interpret optimistically. The accountability from concrete action items is what moves the startup forward between sessions.

How does it help with pitch preparation specifically?

Build the pitch structure on the board — story arc, key claims, anticipated investor objections. Snap. BoardSnap produces a written pitch framework document that the founder practices from and refines. It's the structured version of the pitch you built in the session, ready for the founder's prep.

How do I manage coaching for a full cohort simultaneously?

One project per startup. Each project has isolated board history, the startup's brand context, and their action item history. The AI chat per project lets you ask questions about a specific company's coaching arc — 'what were the recurring challenges this startup has faced across sessions?' Pro plan unlocks unlimited projects.

Is BoardSnap useful for cohort-level workshops (all startups together)?

Yes — cohort workshops on pitch day prep, go-to-market strategy, or fundraising produce rich whiteboard content that can be snapped and shared with all companies. A single board session produces the summary that every company in the room receives.

Can I track a startup's progress across multiple coaching sessions?

Yes — the project's board history shows the full coaching arc. The action items from session one appear in subsequent sessions as in-progress or done. The AI chat can synthesize across the arc: 'how has this startup's business model thinking evolved over the coaching engagement?'
