Peercheque, an early-stage startup accelerator platform, on Tuesday opened the applications for its 2025 Origins programme.

Led by Aakrit Vaish, Co-founder of Haptik, and Miten Sampat of CRED, Peercheque plans to run two cohorts this year with the Origins programme.

It aims to launch four new startups, starting with its first cohort focused on artificial intelligence (AI) and fintech sectors. The last date to apply for the inaugural cohort is January 26, the company said in a statement.

Origins is a four-month programme designed to support entrepreneurs through the critical early stages of company building. Peercheque aims to provide intensive, hands-on mentorship tailored to each team’s needs.
