Instead of committing large capital upfront, you fund a short acceleration (~$ 20K) and observe real execution—KPIs, teamwork, leadership, and adaptability.
Live Due Diligence, Not Just a Pitch
Priority Access to Lead or Co-Invest
During acceleration, you gain a first-look window—an opportunity to lead or participate in follow-on rounds before external investors, protecting your position and increasing your control.
In return for your early-stage support, you secure equity—often more valuable than your investment alone would warrant. This approach maximizes your stake in the startup’s upside post- acceleration.
Equity That Outpaces Your Investment
Improve the Odds of Startup Success
With Enchant’s infrastructure—strategic support, GTM guidance, mentor networks, and partner discounts—startups emerge stronger and positioned for growth and follow-on investment.
De-risk Multi-Million Dollar Decisions
If the team underperforms during acceleration, your exposure is limited to the program cost—not millions. This controlled setup avoids high-stakes errors and lets you exit early if needed.
