For Accelerators & Incubators
Hardware startups don't fail on ideas — they fail on execution. ProductFlo gives every portfolio company change review, approval gates, and a shared product graph from the first prototype. No PLM to deploy. No rip-and-replace.
Agents review every change across mechanical, electrical, firmware, and manufacturing. Founders get production-grade change discipline before they can afford a process team.
Each portfolio company gets its own workspace with its own product graph. IP stays separated; your view spans the portfolio.
ProductFlo reads GitHub, Onshape, KiCad, and SolidWorks in place — the tools early teams already use. Nothing to migrate, nothing to learn first.
Agents flag when the BOM stops matching the design, early — before a startup orders the wrong parts on a tight runway.
Each company's designs, changes, and approvals live in its workspace, visible to you. Technical diligence stops being a black box.
Pin mismatches, BOM drift, cross-discipline ECO conflicts — the mistakes that kill hardware startups get caught in review, not after the board spin.
ProductFlo is the orchestration layer above whatever each startup runs. No per-company PLM deployment, no admin burden on your team.
Role-based workspaces keep each company's data separate, with a full audit trail on every change.
A 30-day, $8,000 pilot per company on real work. Cheap enough to standardize across the cohort.
Why ProductFlo
The same review discipline across every hardware company you back. Fewer execution failures, fewer wasted checks.
See each startup's actual engineering activity — changes, reviews, approvals — instead of relying on founder updates.
Hardware founders recognize real tooling. Offering production-grade engineering infrastructure sets your program apart.
Onboard each new batch into the same workspace pattern. The process compounds; the overhead doesn't.
What Teams Say
“Our portfolio companies ship hardware 2x faster when they adopt ProductFlo early. It removes the tooling tax that kills momentum.”
