Building Revenue Systems, Together

Launched in February 2026, Scale Ready Studio connects NYC women founders to a 12-week, revenue-first accelerator. Through strategy labs, 1:1 coaching, and a Deal Day, 20 founders turned early traction into systems, and collective revenue nearly doubled along the way.

This report highlights key takeaways from Cohort 1, including detailed data and insights, founder profiles, and program details.

The Opportunity

Built for What Founders Actually Need

Women founders in NYC's technology sectors are building businesses, creating jobs, and generating revenue. Yet many continue to face barriers to the networks, strategic guidance, and growth opportunities they need to scale.

The Women.NYC Scale Ready Studio Accelerator, designed by Get Sh!t Done, gives women founders the tools, connections, and expert guidance to turn growth potential into measurable results. The free, 12-week program combines strategy labs, peer integration groups, and monthly coaching from founders and operators who have scaled seven- to nine-figure businesses, culminating in a live Deal Day at Morrison Foerster LLP designed to open doors to new partnerships, capital, and growth opportunities.

Clara Ma, Ask a Chief of Staff

Clara entered with strong traction and a clear bottleneck: she was the business. Through the program she systematized lead generation, launched a 30-day free trial, and rebuilt her referral model, creating growth that no longer depended entirely on her being in the room.
