Inspiration
Many first‑time founders at Penn’s incubators told us they were burning 10–15 hours a week hunting grants, cold‑emailing mentors, and tracking policy changes. That admin load was delaying product progress and killing morale. Diascope emerged as a way to hand those chores to an AI “co‑founder.”
What it does
Diascope continuously scrapes public grant portals, pitch‑competition calendars, policy feeds, and LinkedIn. It ranks each item for relevance, auto‑completes applications, drafts personalized outreach messages, and notifies founders of critical deadlines or regulatory shifts—all from one dashboard.
