Can you promote here?
The written rules take no clear position, which is NOT permission: unclear communities enforce norms through removals instead of rulebooks. Sort by top, study which builder posts survived and how they were framed, and when in doubt ask the mods.

Links
No explicit link policy. Default to no URL: link-plus-young-account is one of the most common automated removal patterns on Reddit.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: discussion, question, showcase
Headline: short + specific (e.g., “Seeking feedback: accelerator curriculum”). Write in first‑person for asks/stories. Typical length ~150–500 words, use bullets for metrics/ask. Tone: humble, factual, data‑driven. What gets upvoted: clear traction, concrete asks, useful resources or lessons; removed: blatant ads, link‑only posts, or posts with no clear value to the community.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked August 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/startupaccelerator's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
