Hi Nvidia Team
My NVIDIA Inception application was rejected due to my website being marked as “not functional.” After contacting the Inception team by phone, I was informed that this was the reason for the rejection.
However, my website is fully operational throughout the review period. It was publicly accessible, working correctly, and serving customers without any downtime. I also verified it from multiple networks and locations, and everything was functioning as expected.
I wanted to raise this issue again because it appears the underlying problem has still not been resolved.
The original discussion is here:
Since this issue is still occurring, it seems possible that there is a problem with the website validation or verification process used during application reviews.
My concern is that this may have been affecting applicants for a long time. Many startups may have been rejected because their websites were incorrectly flagged as unavailable, without realizing the actual cause. Since rejection reasons are often not shared immediately, applicants may spend weeks or months trying to understand what went wrong.
Could someone from the NVIDIA team please investigate the website validation process and confirm whether there is an issue? If there is a bug or an intermittent validation failure, resolving it could prevent legitimate startups from being rejected unfairly.
If anyone else has experienced a similar rejection due to a supposedly “non-functional” website that was actually working, it would be helpful if you could share your experience here. That would help determine whether this is an isolated case or a broader issue affecting multiple applicants.
