Your document vault

Open the Documents tab

Select Documents in the app. This is your vault, scoped to the startup active in your startup switcher. Each startup keeps its own set of documents, so files for one venture never mix with another.

What to upload

Upload the files grant applications ask for again and again, so they are ready when you need them:

• Pitch deck. Your current deck. Keep the vault version up to date so you never attach an old one by mistake.
• Financials. Statements, projections, and any numbers you reference in applications.
• Incorporation documents. Certificate of incorporation, registration proof, and recognition documents such as DPIIT, the ones that prove eligibility.
• Team bios. Founder and team backgrounds, which many grants weigh heavily.

Anything you find yourself attaching to more than one application belongs in the vault.

Reuse documents across applications

The point of the vault is reuse. Once a file is stored, you pull it into an application instead of digging it out and uploading it again. As you work through grants in the Apply tab, your stored documents are there to attach. Combined with the reusable Answers section in the Apply tab, the vault means each new application starts mostly assembled rather than from nothing.

Privacy: who can see your documents

Your documents are private by default. The only people who can see them are:

• You, across your own session and devices.
• An incubator you have explicitly joined. If you join an incubator on Incubateer, that incubator can see the documents tied to the startup in its portfolio, which is what lets them support your applications.

If you have not joined an incubator, no incubator can see your files. Joining is an explicit action you take, never automatic, so you always know who has access.
