Most early-stage founders fail not because they lack drive, but because they're building on assumptions they've never tested. They move fast in the wrong direction spending months on product before confirming there's a real problem worth solving, or pitching investors before their business model holds up to basic scrutiny.
Startup.Ready. is an AI-powered assessment platform that scores early-stage startups across six foundational pillars: Founder, Problem, Market, Business Model, Go-to-Market, and Financial.
In about 20 minutes, founders get a structured readiness score that identifies exactly where their startup is strong and where the structural gaps are, before those gaps become expensive mistakes.
The platform doesn't just tell you what's wrong. It tells you what to fix first and why it matters at your current stage. Founders who complete the assessment report shifting their focus from building to validation, which is often the single most important mindset shift in the early stage.
Startup.Ready. was built by Dr. Shaun Digan, PhD in Entrepreneurship and author of Persuade (Wiley, 2021), with 15 years of experience advising early-stage founders. The platform is also used by accelerators, innovation hubs, and university entrepreneurship programs that want a structured, repeatable way to evaluate and develop their cohorts.
If you're a founder who wants to know whether you're actually ready, not just whether you feel ready, this is built for you.

Startup Readiness Score's answer
Startup.Ready. is the only platform that evaluates startup readiness across six structured pillars: -Founder -Problem -Market -Business Model -Go-to-Market -Financial The AI surfaces specific structural gaps rather than generic advice. Built on 15 years of hands-on founder advising and PhD-level entrepreneurship research, the diagnostic logic reflects how startups actually fail. Not how they look on paper.
Startup Readiness Score's answer
Most startup tools help you move faster. Startup.Ready. helps you move in the right direction first.
Competitors tend to validate ideas or generate plans. Startup.Ready. tells you whether your foundation is actually strong enough to build on across every dimension that determines success, before you commit serious time, money, or credibility to the wrong priorities.

Startup Readiness Score's answer
After 15 years of advising founders, Dr. Shaun Digan kept seeing the same pattern: smart, committed people failing not because they lacked drive, but because they were building on assumptions they'd never tested.
The knowledge to help them existed โ in research, in frameworks, in the heads of experienced advisors โ but access was unevenly distributed.
Startup.Ready. was built to close that gap and make rigorous startup thinking accessible to every founder, regardless of who they know or what program they're in.
