On Deck is a company that offers various programs designed to support and connect individuals in the tech industry. Founded in 2016, On Deck initially served as a platform for tech employees and startup founders to network and explore potential business ideas. Over time, the company expanded its offerings to include specialized programs focusing on specific industries and skills, such as writing, venture capital, podcasting, and fintech.

In March 2021, On Deck raised $20 million in Series A funding, led by Founders Fund, achieving a post-money valuation of $250 million. This funding round also saw participation from Learn Capital, NFX, Slack Fund, and several angel investors. However, in October 2022, On Deck faced financial challenges that led to the closure of its startup accelerator program, ODX.

The company cited financial difficulties as the primary reason for this decision, highlighting the complexities and competitive nature of the startup accelerator landscape. Despite this setback, On Deck continues to offer various programs aimed at fostering connections and growth within the tech community.
