Meet your AI Co-Founder
From the moment you add your startup to Gearbox, our intelligent software works for you around the clock -- even while (if?) you're sleeping.
We partner with large corporations to identify and diagnose the products, services, vendors, solutions, and technologies of tomorrow.
They tell us their problems. You apply. Our AI crunches the numbers to calculate fit. When you match, we deliver.
Why should your startup join Gearbox?
Nothing unnecessary
No more time wasted on an accelerator. No more hunting for investors. Zero pitches. Real growth. Real opportunities. Real fast.
Opportunities. Delivered.
You keep doing what you're doing. Our AI work 24/7 to find you the perfect corporations to work with and problems to solve.
Milestone growth
Gearbox startups pilot with corporations. If it goes well, they partner. Then invest. Then invest again. Then acquire.
Keep more equity
An accelerator takes a cut, to introduce you to investors, who take a cut, to give you money to spend on growth. We skip all that.
Award-winning advisors
Our founders, our employees, our advisors and our mentors are major league. Questions answered. Guidance given. Connections made.
Long-term value
Game-changing partnerships. Industry peers. Investment opportunities with alignment. Acquisition partner possibilities. We have you covered.

Gearbox Cargo perks
Selected startups receive an on-boarding kit of freebies and exclusive deals. We have you covered, from Amazon to Zendesk.

Don't accelerate or incubate. Innovate and collaborate. Grow your vision working side by side with the leading companies that started it all.
Building innovation by proximity
Pairing corporations and startups together is a difficult task.
We turned it into an art. We turned it into a science. Then we turned that into smart software.
