Product tour: one record for everyone

See the platform work, end to end.

This tour covers applications, scoring, cohorts, advisory, capital and the marketplace, all on the same founder record. The screens below are the product’s own surfaces, drawn to spec.

One founder, start to finish

Ada’s twelve weeks at Meridian

As you scroll, each chapter shows one product working on the same record, in the order a founder meets them. Every name and number is fictional.

01 · Program Management

Ada applies to Meridian Accelerator

Her application creates a new founder record with company, stage and deck. Nobody exports it to a spreadsheet or chases the deck.

02 · Program Management

Three reviewers score Ada’s application

Reviewers score blind on the same record. The rubric weights the scores, and Ada is advanced with the reasoning attached.

03 · Program Management

The cohort board stays current

All twelve founders are on one board. Stage, owner and what’s due update as work is logged.

04 · Advisory

Yara is matched on three signals

The signals are Ada’s stage, her sector and the gaps she named in her application.

05 · Advisory

The session is logged in one step

The recording, notes and hours are saved to Ada’s record. Yara’s private notes stay private.

06 · Capital

Coming soon

Meridian will see Northwind open the deck

Watch and Notify will alert Meridian, and Pipeline will track Northwind from lead to meeting. Both are coming soon.

07 · Marketplace

Ada redeems the cloud credits

It takes one click, and the redemption is tracked back to the provider and the program that negotiated it.

08 · The platform

Sponsor reports come from the record

Every number on Northshore Foundation’s dashboard comes straight from the record above.

What makes it one platform

The platform underneath

Every module shares four things: one record, a view for every seat, the tools it replaces and the money it accounts for.

01 · One record

One record per founder

Every module writes to the same founder record. Applications, sessions, intros and offers are all logged on it as events.

02 · Every seat

The same record, seen from every seat

Founders, advisors, sponsors and staff look at one record. Permissions decide what each seat sees; nobody keeps a separate copy.

03 · Retired tools

Your tools feed one record

Forms, spreadsheets, calendars and docs stop being the system. They become inputs to the record the whole cohort works from.

04 · Attribution

Show the sponsor exactly what their money did

From grant to program to founders to outcomes, the chain is one set of records, and the report reads straight from that data.

What Program Management replaces

Program Management replaces the form tool, the scoring sheet, the tracker, the curriculum doc, the events tool and the quarterly report with one shared record. Here’s what each job looked like before, and how it works now.

Application Builder
