What's included

Free

up to 5 universities

  • Structured survey covering IP timeline, equity terms, faculty incentives, and the fund & venture-home model, for up to 5 universities
  • Don't know how a peer university handles a question? Leave it blank — an AI research pass fills in a best-effort public-information estimate, clearly tagged so you know what's confirmed versus inferred
  • A scored comparison against the best-practice signals in the Open Bench IP benchmarking study
  • McKinsey-style ranking charts and a signal coverage matrix across every university you enter
  • A written gap analysis identifying exactly what each university is missing
  • A strategic recommendation prioritizing what to fix first

Enter your name and email and you'll land straight on a survey page to enter each university and its answers. You don't need to already know every answer for universities other than your own — leave those fields blank and the AI research pass fills in an estimate when you generate the report. Generate as many times as you like as you refine the answers — nothing is locked after the first run.
