    SproutBox is a 3-month program for Web entrepreneurs. It picks four startups per cycle and brings them to their offices (called “The Box”) in Bloomington, Indiana. Once there, the startup and its entrepreneurs work with several SproutBox teams in order to build the product, promote, add users, and foster a community.

    The startups SproutBox is most interested in are Web companies with subscription-based models, although they are listening to pitches from any company with a web, mobile, or desktop focus. Startups have several months to get their applications together - they’re not due until August 8th.

    SproutBox, understanding that some entrepreneurs may be skeptical of the model, already has two projects out of the pipeline: DecideAlready, a group decision collaboration tool, and CheddarGetter,a online subscription billing service in beta. While different tools, both have a similarities in design and interface.
