Member add-on
Join the Rhythm Accelerator
Eight working weeks, in person at SURF Incubator, downtown Seattle. Next cohort starts January 2027. One cohort, pods of four or five, and the whole programme built around one question: has anyone agreed to pay you for this?
Next cohort starts January 2027. Spots are limited, and a $100 deposit holds your place.
What it is
Rhythm Accelerator is for founders who have customers and want to make sales repeatable, or who have something working and want it working at volume. It builds the business, whatever you decide about capital. Raising is one path we teach. It is never the headline.
Built for women founders. Open to anyone aligned with the mission. Equity free, always.
Who it's for
Two sentences tell you whether Rhythm Accelerator is for you.
"I have customers and I'm making sales repeatable."
"It's working. Now I want it working at volume."
If one of those is you, book the fit call. If neither is, yet, book it anyway. Service, product, or nonprofit, the indicators are about your customers, not your revenue line, and the call is where we work it out together. There's a right next step at The SWELL either way.
The shape of a week
A working session in person at SURF. A teach of twenty minutes or less, then applied work on your actual business. Guest operators tell stories, they don't lecture. (The first Monday runs with a virtual option.)
Build, async. One deliverable, scoped to fit around a job and a family, with AI tooling provided so the work is the thinking, not the formatting.
Pod hot seats. Sixty minutes, your pod of four or five, the same pod all eight weeks. They tear down the deliverable the same week you built it.
Every week ends on the same two questions: what am I currently wrong about, and has anyone agreed to pay you for this.
Then Demo Day to close the programme.
