Pitch your product. Win $1M+

by
Product Hunt
•

We’re teaming up with The Pitch by @Deel, a global startup competition where up to 100 winners will receive $50k in funding and up to 10 winners will receive $1M+.

If you make the cut, you’ll also show up on special Product Hunt leaderboards, starting with the first event on April 13.

So this is not just another application form floating around the internet. There is real money on the table, and if you get in, people will actually see you.

Is that ten winners taking a million each? Or one million split between ten winners? Very cool either way!

@grey_seymour 👋 Head of Startups at Deel here! Up to 10 winners will win $1M in funding each! Plus, up to 100 winners will win $50k in funding each.

Curious how many companies will be applying over all, since this isn't an exclusive Product Hunt partnership...

Terms:

The $50K investment conforms to YC standards and will be done via SAFE with a 20% discount to the next priced round and no valuation cap. If you are raising a round right now, we can also join the round. As part of entering The Pitch competition, you are required to take this investment, but our intention with such an investment is to support founders without taking large ownership stakes or competing with lead investors. Companies selected also receive access to our network, go-to-market support, ecosystem perks, and strategic introductions. As a corporation, Deel will require certain standard rights as it manages these investments (e.g. information rights), but our goal is to support you as much as you need/want.

Also, deadlines worth noting:

Applications close 10 days before each regional event. Regional dates:

  • Paris: April 13th

  • Berlin: April 20th

  • Tel Aviv: April 23rd

  • London: April 28th

  • New York: May 5th

  • Singapore: May 12th

  • Dubai: May 14th

This sounds like a great opportunity!

Could you share a bit more: will there be any changes to the rules for the day, anything unusual that doesn’t happen on a typical launch day?

This looks like a legit opportunity worth applying to — $50k floor with a shot at $1M+ is real money, not exposure bucks. The Product Hunt leaderboard visibility is a nice bonus, actual eyeballs from the right crowd. April 13 is close though so you'd need to move fast on the application. Are you thinking of throwing your hat in?
