Working on a side project alone in your room is modern-day torture. Let's change that.

There is something magical about the early stages of building a tech project. Coding at 2 AM, training your first raw AI model, or getting that first broken game mechanic to work.

But doing it completely alone sucks. Your friends who do not code do not care that you finally fixed a brutal bug. You have no one to share a small win with, no one to bounce ideas off, and nobody to tell you that your UI looks terrible before you launch it.

My buddy and I realized that what we miss the most is the vibe of a digital garage. A space where you can just hang out with other creators, show your messy screenshots, get instant feedback, and find someone to build a quick weekend MVP with.

We are currently in active development of this platform. We want to gather the core group right now, before the official launch. If you want to become a true pioneer, secure your "OG / Old" status, and get exclusive perks and priority access in the future, hit me up in the DMs. Let me know what you are currently working on, and let us build this together.

Sick of ghost town Discord servers and "idea guys" looking for free senior devs? Let’s build something better.

We are actually building a dedicated community and matchmaking platform for tech builders (AI, SaaS, indie projects, and gamedev) to help them find co-founders and team members without the usual noise and spam.

We want to introduce a strict vetting system at entry to filter out the people who want free labor, and keep only those who actually build and ship things.

Since everyone here has experienced dead networking groups, let us build this right. What is the single most important question we should ask in the onboarding form to filter out 90% of the time-wasters? Or what would an ideal matchmaking system look like to you?

We are setting up the structure in a temporary space right now to test the first ideas with 20-30 people. If you want to help us shape this or be part of the early test, hit me up in the DMs.

Why is finding a cofounder still so difficult despite having hundreds of online communities?

I've been trying to build startups, side projects, and AI products for a while now, and honestly, finding the right people has been harder than building the actual product.

There are plenty of talented developers, designers, marketers, and AI builders out there.

The problem is finding people who are actually interested in building something, have complementary skills, and won't disappear after a few days.

Because of that, me and a few friends started thinking about building a community/workspace focused specifically on finding teammates and launching projects together.

Something where people could find cofounders or teammates, join short build sprints similar to game jams, showcase previous projects, and form teams around validated ideas.

Before we spend time building it, I'd love to hear from people who've been through this.

What's been your biggest frustration when looking for collaborators online?

And are there any communities, platforms, Discords, Telegram groups, or other tools that you've tried but felt didn't really solve the problem?
