Thank you, Product Hunt, for being part of our story. Let’s build the future of startups and investors together. 💜
@tonyabracadabra thanks Tony 🙌 The hardest thing to motivate startups to fill their profiles, especially during the period when they could not see VCs on the platform 😄 but we overcame that!
Julia, wish you good luck with another launch! :) Question: How do you claim partnerships with accelerators – how do you find them and what is their profile (conditions/quality parameters to become your partner)?
@busmark_w_nika thanks, Nika! As for your question, we manually approach accelerators and partners that align with our mission and share the same quality focus. The goal is to create meaningful partnerships that provide real value to early-stage startups and first-time founders 💜
Finding the signal in the noise, that's the challenge. Focusing on growth metrics is good. But that too can be artificially gamed and alas becomes noise not signal. How do you filter out artificial growth? Any insight into this? I'm not sure it's a problem. But would be interesting to hear your thoughts.
@sentry_co That’s a great question and a challenge many face! Growth metrics can sometimes be gamed, but Unicorns Club tackles this by focusing on consistent, long-term updates and progress tracking. Investors get to follow a startup’s journey in real time, seeing actual commitment, growth, and team performance over time—similar to the transparency provided by accelerators.
By encouraging startups to showcase their traction, product evolution, and strategy updates regularly, it becomes harder to “artificially inflate” metrics. Organic growth shines through when you can see trends and the team’s execution over months, not just a flashy snapshot.
What are your thoughts on this approach? Would love to hear 💜
@juliayugo Really interesting product and I love the idea of creating a community / ecosystem for an organic connection between these 2 parties.
I am curious if your team has access to a dollar amount that you've helped to facilitate between investors / startup founders.
I think that might be a cool marketing tool to use - have helped facilitate over 6k matches totalling over (ONE BILLION) in business funding over the past 7 months etc.
Either way - killer job and I'm following along for the journey.
@dzaitzow thank you, Daniel 🙏 I agree—it would be an awesome marketing tool! Unicorns Club is all about connecting the right startups with investors, and we’re working on building those kinds of impactful success stories.
@juliayugo totally - I think the success stories (and actually having success from those connections haha) is more important that my knee jerk first reaction to see metrics.
Killer work again!
@michacassola Thanks for the kind words! 🤩 We don’t have specific discounts for Product Hunt folks yet, but the good news is that Unicorns Club is 100% free for founders—and the basic functionality will always remain free! 🚀
And don't forget — the best time to start building your profile is now 🚀
Even if you’re not actively raising funds right now, creating a profile helps you:
1. Track growth and identify weak areas through our frameworks.
2. Build trust with investors over time by showcasing progress and commitment.
3. Get on investors’ radar early—many will follow your journey and step in when the time is right.
Fundraising is all about building trust, and that takes time. So starting now gives you a head start!
@alexxiang Great question!
Growth metrics, user adoption, revenue, or any key milestones prove your startup is moving in the right direction. Month-over-month progress builds trust.
Also investors care about how you make or plan to make money. Clear monetization strategies or potential revenue streams are key.
And... strong, committed team with the skills to execute and adapt is often as important as the idea itself.
@giancarlorosa wow! Thank you so much for the kind words! 🎉 We’ve put a lot of effort into making the setup process as smooth as possible, so I’m thrilled to hear it was a great experience for you.
The key now is to keep your profile updated—regular progress updates help build trust with investors over time 💜
Being a founder who is raising now this is insanely valuable! Good job team, this thing looks awesome! I'm signing up as soon as i finish the comment lol :D
such an interesting concept! How do you select standout profiles? Is it based purely on traction, or do you also consider other factors like innovation or industry trends? love the video feed concept btw
@anastasiabuga Glad you love the video feed concept! 🎥 It’s a powerful way for startups to showcase their passion and clarity when talking about their product.
At Unicorns Club, standout profiles aren’t just about traction. While traction and KPIs are important, we also focus on innovation, industry trends, and how startups solve meaningful problems. Profiles that show regular updates, a strong vision, and clear growth metrics tend to attract more investor interest over time.
This is amazing, really congratulation to the whole Unicorn Club team and good luck with everything 🔥
I'm so curious what have been the biggest success stories so far?
@achille_cavinato_jenium We’ve already made over 6,000 matches between startups and investors across 40+ countries, so we’ve seen some great momentum 🚀
Thank you all for the incredible support! 🚀
We secured 2nd place on Product Hunt, and we couldn’t have done it without each one of you.
💜
A huge shoutout to Aimfox victory was well-deserved, showcasing just how powerful and valuable their tool is. Congrats, Aleksandar Besarovic, Damjan Martinov, Anja Petković, Natalija Jakušin, Tamara Stanković Stevanović, Ronnie Abugan 👏 ! It would be cool to see your startup profile on Unicorns Club! ☺️
We’re excited for what’s ahead—stay tuned, and thank you once again for believing in Unicorns Club! 🦄
Everyone who's gone through the fundraising process knows how tedious that is.
I'm in favor of any platform that simplifies the process, expands the investor pool for great startups, and provides a healthy pipeline for VCs.
Congratulations on the launch 🚀 Super exciting product, I’m building my new agency with scope of going into product in near future. Will definitely give this a try :)
@egor_krasnoperov Great question! Unicorns Club is open to startups from all niches and regions 🌍. We don’t have strict selection criteria—we focus on helping startups showcase their progress, innovation, and potential. Profiles with regular updates, clear growth metrics, and a strong vision tend to attract more investor interest.
