Pre-incubators and business nurseries

Follow every founder from the idea to their first customers.

In pre-incubation, founders often start alone, with an idea and a lot of questions. La Mashine gives them a framework to go out into the field between two meetings, and gives your program officers the context of every project before every session.

From €100 per project per month · Up and running in a week

Entrepreneurs, schools and incubators are already working together in La Mashine.

WHAT CHANGES

Founders who move forward between meetings.

Each founder starts with a diagnosis of their project, then follows an action plan phase by phase: assumptions to test, field interviews, deliverables. The AI helps them prepare their interviews and analyse the feedback, without deciding for them.

Sessions that start at the decision.

Before each meeting, your program officer finds what has moved: the interviews carried out, the deliverables, the assumptions that hold and the ones that fell.

Projects that stall, spotted in time.

An alert tells you when a project slows down or an important decision is coming up, so you can step in while it still makes a difference.

YOUR COHORT

The whole cohort in one place.

You see where each project stands, what founders did this week and who needs you. When you bring in one of your experts, they find the context of the project already there.

YOUR METHOD

The phases follow your program.

The phases, the expected deliverables and the steps are configured to match your pre-incubation program. Your founders have nothing to pay: you are the one who gives them access.

WHAT LA MASHINE DOES NOT DO

Your program officers stay in charge.

La Mashine never decides in their place. The moments that matter, such as dropping an idea, pivoting or taking on a co-founder, stay in their hands and in those of your experts. The platform gives them the context to handle those moments well.

PRICING

From €100 per project per month.

A pilot is possible to get started. We start from your program, your founders and your constraints.

Questions from pre-incubators.

No. The starting diagnosis works from the idea stage: it places the project in the right phase and sets the first assumptions to test in the field.
