Do you actually know what
your European customers need?
You're entering a new market. France, Finland, somewhere in Europe where the rules are different. You've got a product that works. You've got meetings lined up.
But here's what usually happens: you walk in, you pitch your solution, the prospect is polite, nothing moves. You leave thinking it went well. It didn't.
This is a 4-week pilot for 5 startups from Hard to Scale Cohort 1 who want to stop guessing and start discovering what their target customers actually need. Before they burn their best prospects.
The δiscovery Lab Pilot
Everything you need to turn discovery conversations into validated evidence.
It's not a course. It's not a webinar. It's foundational capability building. A month of structured practice with real tools, real prospects, and real feedback.
Most startups entering European markets don't fail because their technology is bad. They fail because they never found out what the buyer actually cared about. The competitor who asked the right questions, who understood the buyer's real constraints, who spoke the buyer's language, closed the deal.
The difference wasn't the product. It was the conversation.
What you get
Real tools. Real conversations. Real evidence about whether your market entry strategy is working.
Structured Prospect Research
Drawing on your guided intake, the platform researches your prospect: their company, their challenges, their context. You walk in prepared, not guessing.
Hypothesis-Driven Preparation
You run each conversation based on tailored questions designed to test specific hypotheses about your prospect's pain points, needs, and willingness to act.
Objective Evaluation
Upload your call transcript for deep evaluation. How well did you conduct the discovery? To what extent did you validate and qualify? Honest. Specific. Every time.
Easy Follow-Up
After every meeting, get a professionally drafted follow-up that references what was actually discussed. No procrastination, no generic words, accuracy that connects.
Before-and-After Gap Analysis
At the start, we baseline what you know about your market. At the end, we show you what you've learned, and what you still assumed. That gap is the discovery delta.
Precision Attention. Not Self-Serve
Five startups, not fifty. You'll work directly with the team behind the platform. We're learning alongside you.
4 weeks. 3 conversations. 1 clear picture.
The pilot moves you through a complete discovery cycle: from baseline to evidence.
Onboard & Baseline
Set up your account. We see your current understanding of your market: what you know, what you assume, and where the discovery gaps are.
Research & Prepare
Using the platform, you research your prospects and generate hypothesis-driven preparation for your first real meetings. You'll be walking in with better questions than you've ever asked.
Discover & Evaluate
Conduct your customer conversations (target: three). Upload each transcript. Receive objective evaluation, with personalised performance recommendations. Follow up effectively.
Review & Gap Analysis
We compare your initial baseline to what you've actually learned. The gap between what you assumed and what you now know. That's the discovery delta.
Right fit, not just any fit
We're selecting five startups who will generate real evidence and real learning. For themselves and for us.
