FAQ
What exactly is being rated?
The startup idea visible from public evidence and the quality of its public website. Revenue, funding, team quality, and private company metrics are not scored.
Can payment improve a score or rank?
No. The score is finished before checkout exists. The global board is ordered by score; payment only makes an eligible score visible there.
Can I score the same website again?
Yes, after a 30-minute cooldown. Scores and share images are free. A one-time $10 domain pass includes deeper analysis and global board placement. Future board updates are included and require your domain’s access key. Only the newest eligible score can replace a listing.
Why three judges per area?
Each judge works independently. StartupBench takes the median for every criterion, reducing the effect of one unusually high or low judgment.
Is my result private?
Your scores, criterion ratings and share images are public and may appear in recent activity. Detailed explanations, improvements and research context are only available to the domain pass holder. Board placement and analysis access are separate from the public score.
Do I need an account?
No. Stripe handles optional one-time payments. After paying, save your access key from the score page: it restores your analysis and listing controls on another device. Keep it private, like a password.
Can a score be corrected or removed?
Yes. Send the score URL and your request to support@startupbench.app. Public evidence and scoring mistakes can be reviewed, and lawful removal requests are honored.
