Exactly what we needed and more

Our experience working with Hyper has been invaluable. It has given us at Mens Network the proper framework, assets and strategy we need to kickstart our business, and has put us in a really strong position to launch, fundraise and continue building.

The product team led by Morgan really understood our vision and delivered results we couldn't have achieved on our own. They were thorough and professional throughout the design process.

On the Commercial and Founder Support side, Bill and Trent were equally amazing. Very knowledgeable, resourceful and helpful, and made time for us whenever we needed additional support.

What stands out is their genuine interest in seeing us succeed - not just as a successful business but in our mission. They continue to check in regularly and provide ongoing support, which makes a real difference when navigating the startup journey. It's been so helpful to have a trusted third-party, like a pseudo Board of Advisors/co-founder, to sense-check our thinking and direction!

Would definitely recommend them if you're looking for both strong execution and strategic guidance!

Hyper is the team to get your idea into action

Hyper HQ have been brilliant! If you're serious about turning your idea into a prototype and getting investment-ready, their accelerator process will impress you. Otto, Andrew, and Connor have each been a pleasure to work with across onboarding, design, and commercial advisory. The team truly listened to our vision, while respectfully challenging us to build the best product possible. Their experience and input throughout product development have been invaluable.

Can’t say enough good things about the team at Hyper. They've been helping me build out my startup Vestri, and honestly, I don’t know how I would’ve made this much progress without them.

They just get it ! super sharp, down-to-earth, and always quick to jump in with solid advice, creative ideas, or hands-on help. It’s like having a team of startup pros in your corner who genuinely care about your vision and want to see you win.

If you're working on a startup and need real support from people who know what they’re doing, go with Hyper. No fluff, just good people doing great work.

Thanks team — appreciate everything!

As a non tech founder I found their support excellent

As a founder not traditionally from Tech, I came to Hyper Startup Studio with a bold idea and a lot of uncertainty. What I found was not just a team, but true partners who brought deep insight, strategic clarity, and lots of advice that early-stage start-ups need.

Hyper Accelerate program is amazing for first time founders to bring your idea to

Hyper Accelerate program is amazing for founders to hold your hand like a co-founder while working on your MVP deliverables and design, branding with their expert teams.

Having a vision is one thing but being able to execute in the right way with expert founders who have done it themselves and have your idea come to life from the expert team is unmatched.

There is so many good resources and you are always updated from the product team and Andrew from Australia Hyper branch and his team are so good at understanding what you want and just making it happen.

Connor is very knowledgeable in the commercial side and tells you what to focus on.

James is my original contact and like with Andrew and Connor, just knows what first time founders need and how to make a product that fits the market work.

Highly recommend making the investment in yourself and your idea. They know what works and they communicate and execute what they say very well.

Highly recommend Hyper’s Accelerate Process!

I’m about halfway through Hyper’s 12-week Accelerate Process, and it’s been an incredibly valuable experience so far. The team brings a high level of professionalism, structure, and energy to the process, and from day one it’s been clear that they genuinely care about helping you build something meaningful.

The program gives you real confidence that you’re creating a prototype that solves a real-world problem. At the same time, it’s also a crash course in what it takes to launch and grow a startup. You learn how to navigate technical concepts, understand investor language, and bring your app to life beyond just the prototype stage. They also connect you with industry professionals through targeted sessions that offer practical insights, giving you the tools and perspective to move forward with clarity.

Working with Andrew, Connor & Ben has been a standout part of the experience. They’re incredibly knowledgeable and bring fantastic experience to the table, which they apply in a way that’s grounded, helpful, and motivating. Every time I connect with them, I genuinely feel they’re invested in the success of my idea and this app. They’ve been great at keeping momentum, offering thoughtful feedback, and connecting me with additional opportunities to grow and learn.

What’s really impressed me is how stress-free and approachable they’ve made this whole journey. I came into this world with just an idea and no background in tech or startups and they’ve made it not only manageable but exciting. They’re helping me bring something to life that once felt out of reach.

If you have an idea and aren’t sure where to start, I’d absolutely recommend reaching out to Hyper. Just book a consult with the team, you won’t regret it.

Extremely professional!

I have run and owned traditional businesses for years. Moving into the tech space was a challenge for me. The team at HYPER made it a simple and an enjoyable experience.
Extremely professional is a phrase i use rarely, but the team embody that 100%.
I highly recommend if you have a app idea, contact them.

Hyper HQ brilliant business incubator

Hyper HQ were brilliant, right from the start! We approached them with an idea and no more than that; gradually we not only workshopped development, but also touched upon how we could scale up in future. Trent, Jamie and Bill were great in setting us up and providing their expertise on matters.
The products produced by the technical team were excellent - they got our ideas and were able to transfer them into visually stunning graphics. A special mention to Morgan who really helped guide me through the technical aspects when handing over.
Be prepared to do a fair amount of work yourself, however, as the point of developing a business is to know your own product inside and out.
Communication was great throughout and no job was ever too big or small.
Overall, if you're looking for support and guidance with an idea, Hyper HQ are the guys to go to.

Game-Changing Support For Startup Founders.

Hyper has been an outstanding partner in transforming my raw concept into a well-structured, investable proposition. Cristina and Andrei (Product Managers) brought clarity and sharp thinking to the user journey, helping to prioritise the right features for the MVP. Bill Amis offered real value on the commercial side, supporting the investor deck, refining the strategy, and guiding the SEIS application. And Trent Borrow, as Director of the UK, brought a no-nonsense approach that I found both insightful and grounding. The past few months have been transformative, and if they’re anything to go by, I feel confident heading into our investment round.

Incredible Support from Idea to MVP

I came in with just an idea, and they helped shape it into a real, working MVP — with clarity, structure, and so much support along the way.

Big shoutout to Morgan Crawford, who was just a brilliant Product Manager, He kept things moving, always asked the right questions, and really cared about building something meaningful.

And to Hayden Gouldie, whose commercial insights were spot on — he helped me think more strategically about the business side of things, and made sure the product had a clear market.

I recommend Hyper to any founder looking to kick off their journey.

Thank you Hyper!

Working with Hyper has been a brilliant experience. I have completed the Accelerate Program and Development Stage 1 and have found the experience to be thoroughly informative, enjoyable and rewarding. The access I have had to experience and knowledge so far has helped me to avoid most pitfalls that founders experience and could have quite easily derailed my success. I am forever grateful to Sam Cust, Rob Knowles, Julia Leong, Tim Clark, Leah Breen and Spencer Shaw. There are also countless others that I have met along the way affiliated to Hyper that I won’t mention.
If you’re on the fence, don’t be and let Hyper be your secret sauce

Highly recommend Hyper Studio as a startup partner.

As a non-technical, non-design founder, I was looking for more than just an agency to build an app — I needed a strategic partner who could help turn my idea into a commercially viable product. Hyper Studio delivered.

What sets them apart is their deep understanding of what actually works in the startup world. They bridge the gap for founders who don’t come from tech or design backgrounds and offer guidance rooted in real experience — both the wins and the failures they’ve seen firsthand.

Rather than just building something that looks good, they’re laser-focused on commercial outcomes. Every decision was made with growth, product-market fit and ROI in mind. If you want a team that cares as much about your business goals as you do, Hyper Studio is it.

Hyper out sources all work to very very…

Hyper out sources all work to very very low level designers and developers. They lie and are very very deceptive. Don’t waste your money!

After completing two more accelerators & expanding my network in the startup space. I haven’t heard of a single person who has gone through this accelerator or industry expert in Aus say one positive thing about Hyper.

They allege an incredible reputation but removed their google reviews… In fact I would question the legitimacy of some of these trust pilot reviews.

Save your money and use canva, Figma and ProtoPie yourself & watch all of the startup videos on Y Combinator.

When I raised issues with upper management about the level of work provided they were extremely defensive, shifted blame, weaponised my politeness to their junior staff against me and took 0 accountability or provided any path to resolution.

Now PLEASE stop sending me digital ads!

Hi Helen,

We’re sorry to hear you’re still feeling this way. We're genuinely unsure what prompted this so we want to clarify a few points for others reading.

Our in-house team worked closely with you throughout the process to deliver quality assets for your new startup. These received glowing written reviews by yourself, our test audiences and investment partners.

We also facilitated introductions to our investment partners that included Square Peg, Skalata and Galileo and created publicity opportunities for your startup such as Bondi Shark Tank. We were sad to hear that you didn't take up any of these opportunities.

The claim about reviews being fake or removed is simply false. We have over 500 five star reviews on TrustPilot, Facebook and Google from real and verifiable founders that reflect genuine experiences with our team.

We sincerely wish you the best in your journey and hope you find the right partner you're looking for.
