FAQ

Questions founders ask

▶How do I validate my startup idea without spending money?
Startup Speedrun's AI Market Analyst mentor validates your idea through a guided conversation — researching your TAM/SAM/SOM, analyzing competitors, and finding real pricing data using Google Search. No surveys, no paid tools, no guesswork.
▶What is a Business Model Canvas and how do I create one?
A Business Model Canvas maps 10 key areas of your business — from value proposition to revenue streams. Startup Speedrun auto-generates yours from AI mentor conversations. Each lesson builds a tile, and by the end you have a complete canvas.
▶How do I write a PRD for my MVP?
A PRD (Product Requirements Document) defines exactly what your MVP should do. Startup Speedrun's Product Architect AI synthesizes everything from your mentor conversations into a structured PRD — ready to paste into vibe-coding tools like Cursor, Replit, or Lovable.
▶How can I find startup grants and funding in India?
Use our free India Grants Finder at grants.startupspeedrun.org — search and filter 200+ central, state, and private grants by stage, sector, and funding amount. Each grant includes eligibility criteria and direct application links.
▶Is Startup Speedrun really free?
Yes, completely free and open source. The platform, the grants finder, and the portfolio builder are all free to use. No premium tier, no paywall. Built as a community resource for first-time founders.
▶How do I build a portfolio website without coding?
Use our open-source Portfolio Builder at portfolio.startupspeedrun.org. Edit one config file with your details, let Claude or Codex generate the content, choose from 5 themes, and deploy free on Vercel. Live in 30 minutes.
