The site has some impressive names. First time i have heard of this. Anyone has experience with this? How do you "earn" points? Is your project voted by the experts (ok, great) or by "other players" (well..) ? It seems you need to reach 10,000 points which a lot.

  I won Pioneer a little more than a year ago. It's been absolutely amazing for us and we met great people through it. Best benefit has definitely been the community you join. Projects are voted on by experts and other players.

Has Pioneer been helpful for you so far? If so, could you elaborate a bit?

    Interesting. I played it for a while and didn't get much out of it. My ranking was okay and did go up gradually, but I got a strong sense that my age was a liability and the fact that everyone's age was listed publicly only reinforced that feeling. Not getting too much actionable or useful feedback, I quit spending time voting and writing up progress reports. Instead, I spent that time on a building a mastermind group with people working on similar businesses and doing weekly skype chats. That has helped me a great deal. I also started doing some podcast interviews, to grow my network and put me in touch with more like-minded people. It seemed like once again, when faced by gatekeepers, the best option forward was to try to recreate what I could of what they offered. Out of curiosity, what % of pioneer winner community were over 35? Were you? Was I maybe over-estimating how youth-focused it was due to a few things the founder said early on?

      I'm 19 now, 18 when I won. The list of winners is all here: https://pioneer.app/winners https://pioneer.app/winners and includes ages. I believe there's two people over 35, including my cofounder who happens to be the oldest Pioneer.

Pioneer looks interesting, but it seems that the bar is too high and that other routes are easier.

I have to ask, who is behind Pioneer? Looks very interesting, I would submit a project or two :D
