Navigate Accelerators with Ark

Accelerators can be a great way to kickstart your startup. Whether you’ve just been accepted, are in the process of joining, or still searching for the right one — Ark is here to help. Let’s explore how you can manage your accelerator journey more effectively with Ark!

In the Ark platform homepage, click on Investment Strategy, and then on the sub-folder Accelerators

Then, create a new project by clicking the plus button. If you already have one, simply select it. Each project has its own dedicated context — meaning the AI will only reference information discussed within that specific project, avoiding any “context pollution.” For example, you can explore different strategies without overlap.

After creating a project, you can start by sending a message in the chat. Your dedicated AI Agent will answer your questions and guide you through a focused discussion about accelerators.

You can chat with agents in each folder using three different options:

1. Consult Partner – This is the default option. It’s a free discussion with the AI Partner dedicated to the folder you’re in. You can also ask the AI to generate documents for you.

2. Analyze Document – This option allows you to upload documents you’ve created or received from stakeholders (for example, an investor) and get an analysis, such as a list of insights or a risk assessment to the received document.

3. Teach Ark – This option lets you teach Ark new information about your company. Everything Ark knows about you is managed in the Company Profile. By selecting Teach Ark, you can upload documents or share information in the chat that you’d like Ark to learn

There are many topics you can discuss with the Accelerator AI Agent. We recommend starting with one of the following examples:

• What do I need to prepare to be ready for an accelerator program?

• What is the difference between an accelerator and other types of investors or stakeholders?

• I have an interview with {{accelerator name}} accelerator, what can I do to make sure I’m ready? → When mentioning names of companies, people or organization we recommend activating Deep Research to make the agents are up to date on the entity you are referring to by clicking on the Deep research (x) button on the bottom right corner of the screen.

• I just got accepted to {{accelerator name}} accelerator, what should I prepare before going? → When mentioning names of companies, people or organization we recommend activating Deep Research to make the agents are up to date on the entity you are referring to by clicking on the Deep research (x) button on the bottom right corner of the screen.
