Process

How selection works

The €7,000 commitment does not secure selection. RaDelta must first approve the founder, opportunity and validation build.

01

Submit your idea

Share the problem, target customer, validation evidence and pitch deck. No agreement or payment is required at this stage.

02

RaDelta review

We assess the founder, customer problem, commercial potential and program fit.

03

Founder and technical discussion

We discuss the validation objective and confirm whether a meaningful build fits within 500 hours.

04

Selection and Build Charter

Selected startups sign the mutual NDA and development agreement. The scope is documented in the Build Charter before development begins.

Why RaDelta

Why RaDelta invests at this stage

Many promising ideas never reach the market because founders cannot fund the first working product. RaDelta invests at this stage to build relationships with strong founders early.

If a selected startup succeeds, RaDelta may explore a future investment and Helios Solutions may have an opportunity to support later development. The founder has no obligation to accept either.

Experienced delivery behind the investment

The build is delivered by experienced Helios Solutions product teams using RaDelta's secure AI-assisted development environment. Engineers remain responsible for architecture, code review, security, testing and documentation. Confidential startup information is not used to train external AI models.

FAQ

Questions founders ask

No. RaDelta provides the €15,000 as product-development capacity for the selected POC/MVP.

Both sides commit to the build. RaDelta invests €15,000 and the founder commits €7,000. The founder's contribution does not secure selection.

The program cannot be purchased. RaDelta first evaluates the founder, problem, commercial potential and validation objective. A founder who can contribute €7,000 may still not be selected.

500 hours is the actual delivery commitment. Approximately 700 hours is an estimated conventional-development output equivalent based on AI-assisted productivity. It is an estimate, not an additional contractual promise.

The build can include product discovery, UI/UX, architecture, development, integrations, testing, deployment support, project management, documentation and source-code handover. The exact scope is documented in the Build Charter.

Third-party cloud services, commercial APIs and external software subscriptions required by the product are not included unless explicitly agreed.

The startup owns the bespoke code and resulting project IP. Source code and project documentation are handed over at the end of the engagement. Third-party components remain subject to their own licences.

No. You may choose any future investor or technology partner after the build.

Confidential information stays within RaDelta's secure development environment and is not used to train external AI models. A mutual NDA is signed after shortlisting and before detailed confidential information is shared.

Incorporation is preferred but may not be mandatory for an exceptional founder and opportunity. Solo founders may apply.
