Koble claims that its data-driven Software as a Service (SaaS) tool helps accelerators and incubators streamline their selection process so they can focus on the most promising founders. The company's vision is to price early-stage startup risk and reward. It intends to move from a Software as a Service (SaaS) workflow tool to the startup-investor marketplace. Koble asserts that pre-seed and seed investors lack a quantitative approach in the early stage of recognising promising startups. Koble argues that its approach is different; it claims that its algorithms are built to mimic the decision processes (both analytical and intuitive) that humans go through when analysing a startup. The tool collects structured, well-tagged data that is not available in the public domain and power the first algorithms that can predict startup success. The company envisages three exit options, namely launching an IPO, avail buyout offers from big technology entities and avail buyout offers from financial buyers.
