Frequently Asked Questions

What is BatchSzn?

It’s a manually curated timing layer for accelerator, incubator, fellowship, and hacker house application windows. We monitor official pages and flag openings, deadlines, and batch dates as soon as possible.

How do statuses work?

Open = you can apply today. Closes soon = deadline within ~7 days. Closed = not accepting applications.

Can I get updates?

Yes. The free tier sends a weekly email digest. Premium alerts are for faster daily or immediate updates when strong founder programs are approved.

What's the difference between accelerators, incubators, fellowships, and hacker houses?

Accelerators are time-boxed, cohort-based programs for startups that already have a team, product, or serious direction. They usually focus on speed, capital, mentorship, customer access, and investor readiness.

Incubators are earlier and more flexible. They help founders test an idea, shape the company, find a first customer, or build the first version before the startup is ready for an accelerator.

Fellowships support the founder as much as the company. They are often part-time or lightweight, with mentorship, community, grants, credits, or access instead of a full operating curriculum.

Hacker houses are live/work or residency-style build environments. The value is concentrated time, peer intensity, shared space, and shipping momentum, with less emphasis on formal curriculum or investor demo days.

When a program overlaps categories, BatchSzn tags it by the main promise: scale faster = accelerator, figure it out earlier = incubator, support the founder = fellowship, build in residence = hacker house.
