About Richard

Led by someone who actually did it.

Richard isn't a career educator. He's a founder who built a company from zero to $50M and sold it. Everything he teaches is what he did — not what he read about.

12-30 weeks — too slow

01

Led by an award-winning entrepreneur with real experience

Richard Wang didn't learn entrepreneurship from a textbook. He built a $50M company from a rented room, sold it for $70M.

→  Real experience in the room. Not theory from a slide deck.

02

Engineers on staff — nobody else does this

10 hours of dedicated engineering support per founder included. Our team is pre-briefed on your product, your scope, and your stack.

→  We have engineers to help you ship. Others leave you to figure it out.

03

In-person Seattle — the only one in the Pacific Northwest

Every major competitor is online. In-person cohorts create accountability you cannot replicate on Zoom.

→  The group launch night is the moment everything changes.

04

4 weeks in the evenings — keep your job, launch a startup

4 weeks Mon/Thu evenings is exactly right: fast enough to feel urgent, long enough to actually launch.

→  You keep your job. You launch a startup. The two are not in conflict.

05

Vibe coding + startup fundamentals + launch in one Accelerator

Customer discovery + Business Model Canvas. You'll use Lovable, Replit, Supabase, and more to launch your startup

→  From idea to launched startup. Not one piece — the whole journey.

06

Be A Part of An Elite Founder Community

Join a cohort of like-minded founders to expand your network, learn from and support each other, and make lifelong friends.

→  Real connections. You'll never be alone on this journey.

07

The Only Accelerator Designed to Empower Founders to Launch

Every competitor delivers a prototype or a demo day slide deck. We empower you to deliver a real product with working payments and analytics — by the end of Week 3.

→  Not a mockup. A real product. Live on the internet.

The engineering difference

You will launch. That's not a promise. It's a design.

Most accelerators teach you to fish, then leave you at a pond with no water. Richard's engineering team is dedicated to ensuring every single student ships a working product by Week 3 Launch Night. They've been briefed on your scope. They know your stack. They're on standby at every build session and available async throughout the week.

Dedicated Engineer Hours

10 Hours

Engineering Support Per Founder Included.

Not an upsell. Not optional.

  • Deployment issues — won't launch? Fixed in the room.

  • Auth & database — Supabase, login flows, data models

  • Payments — Stripe checkout, subscriptions, webhooks

  • Feature completion — 80% done and stuck? They finish it.

  • Async Discord access between all sessions
