MyCampusStartups
Build something real with people on your campus.
Connect with student talent to build real startups. Earn cash, equity, or course credit with all compensation settled upfront.
From "we should build this" to actually building it.
Find each other
Founders post what they need and what it's worth. Students show what they can do. Meet up face-to-face on campus.
Agree on the deal
Cash, equity, or course credit, settled up front. Sign one of our standardized agreements and you're off.
Build it, get rewarded
Track the work together. Get paid, earn equity that actually vests, or earn credit toward your degree.
Three honest ways to get paid for good work.
Whatever you pick, it's spelled out before anyone starts. No surprises, no "exposure."
Funds are held securely in escrow and released as soon as the work is approved. If there is a disagreement, the money stays in escrow until it is settled through a clear, written process, so nobody gets stranded or stiffed.
A real piece of the company that you earn over time. One simple agreement that turns into shares at the next raise.
Turn startup experience into academic credit. Connect faculty through our portal to seamlessly track the metrics needed to validate your credit hours.
We handle the equity, IP, and tax details that sink most student startups.
Most dorm-room equity deals fall apart later. Someone bails in week three and keeps 5% forever, the wrong form gets signed, a tax deadline slips by. We take care of the unglamorous paperwork so a handshake today doesn't become a headache next year.
- One simple agreement, built for review by your campus law clinic, instead of a risky handshake.
- Equity that vests on a schedule with a predetermined cliff, so someone who bails early doesn't keep a permanent slice of the company.
- A nudge before the big tax deadline, so nobody gets a nasty surprise.
One marketplace, two sides, the same campus.

General FAQs
Do you take equity in my company?
Nope. Joining is free and we never take a piece. We make money from optional founder tools and from schools, not from your cap table.
Is any of this legal advice?
Not at all. We aren't a law firm, but we provide reliable templates, educational guides, and direct connections to your campus law clinic for specific advice.
Who can join?
Only university students and faculty.
Is it live yet?
We're running early pilots with a few campuses. Book a demo and we'll show you how it works and whether your campus is a fit.
Want to bring this to your campus?
We're starting with a handful of campuses and programs. Tell us about yours and we'll set up a quick demo — no pressure.
