FundRadar by Merstra
FundRadar exists because good opportunities are too easy to miss.
Startup support is spread across ministries, incubators, universities, corporations, foundations, investors and ecosystem organisations. The information exists — but it's scattered, inconsistent and often discovered too late.
Founders shouldn't have to monitor all of them.
We're building FundRadar to separate the signal from the noise.
BUILT FROM EXPERIENCE
Built by people who have felt the problem.
FundRadar comes from founders and ecosystem builders who have spent years working with startups, running programmes and watching good founders miss opportunities they could have used.
Not because the opportunity did not exist.
Because it was announced on a government website nobody checks. Because the eligibility was difficult to understand. Because the deadline arrived in a forwarded message three days too late. Because the founder had more urgent things to do than check dozens of websites every week.
We thought this part of building a startup should take less searching and lead to better decisions.
So we started building FundRadar.
FUNDRADAR BY MERSTRA
FundRadar by Merstra
Merstra works with founders, incubators and programme operators across the startup ecosystem.
FundRadar grew from something we kept seeing: there are opportunities, there are founders who need them, and too often the two do not connect at the right time.
FundRadar is our attempt to make that connection easier.
THE WIDER OPPORTUNITY LANDSCAPE
Because growth does not come from one kind of opportunity.
A grant can create room to build.
An incubator can provide structure, facilities and a useful network.
A corporate programme can lead to a pilot or partnership.
An accelerator can sharpen the company and expand its reach.
A competition can bring visibility, credibility or capital.
An investor introduction can open a different path entirely.
What matters next depends on the startup. FundRadar reflects that wider opportunity landscape.
BUILT AROUND YOUR NEXT MOVE
Start with relevance.
Look around the need in front of your company, not through an endless general list.
Make comparison easier.
We surface the offer, fit, deadline and next step in a form you can scan.
Protect founder time.
A strong opportunity can still be wrong for your startup. It should be easy to rule out.
Keep the source close.
When something looks relevant, confirm the details and continue on the official programme page.
Stay ready for what comes next.
The right opportunity changes with your stage, priorities and timing.
WHAT WE'RE NOT
We're not trying to make every opportunity look good.
Not every programme is right for every founder. Not every ₹1 crore opportunity deserves your application. And a longer list is not automatically a better one.
The founder's scarce resource is not information. It's time.
Our job is to help you spend that time on the opportunities that actually matter — and skip the ones that don't.
That's what separating signal from noise means in practice.
LESS SEARCHING. BETTER DECISIONS.
