We joined the Limb accelerator! And weirdly, it feels less like “we made it” and more like “cool, now the hard part gets more organized"

We’re building Focido, a social to-do app based on a simple idea: follow-through gets easier when another human is involved. Not as a coachy content machine. Not as endless chat. Just small, real accountability that helps people actually do the thing.

Limb is a 5-week accelerator focused on fundraising readiness, investor materials, and sharpening the business behind the product. That’s exactly why we applied. We’re at the stage where product alone isn’t enough anymore. The story has to get tighter. The numbers have to get cleaner. The positioning has to survive contact with reality.

Also, tiny bonus: the name is excellent. If I remember Dante right, limbo is the first circle of hell. Which honestly feels on-brand for startup life.

For founders who’ve done accelerators:
What was actually useful?
What was just theater?
And what did you wish you’d prepared before joining?
