Hi,
I’m looking for a co-founder who can handle the technical side of building mobile apps (Flutter or similar).
I have several app ideas and want to work together with someone to build them from scratch.
My focus would be concept, UI/UX, product direction and later marketing.
I’m looking for a serious long-term collaboration where we build something together.
If you are interested and experienced in app development, feel free to message me.

Hey! Are you looking to building something in Tech? If yes, we can build it together. I'm looking for a co-founder who is experienced in building softwares and applications. I am looking for a long term commitment, not a part-time one.

A little about me: I am the founder of an influencer marketing agency that we have pivoted into a platform with an MVP ready. I have realised that outsourcing is a stupid idea and I need to build an in-house team with an experienced CTO. I want this to be a product first company and I am looking for someone who shares the same vision. We already have 10k influencers on our waitlist with multiple brands ready to work with us already. My company is based in Kochi, Kerala, India and I am looking for someone who can work with me here. We will be open for equity plus a monthly salary.

If this sounds interesting and you're serious about building a tech platform that revolutionises the creator economy forever, I'd love to chat.

I’m looking for a serious technical co-founder in Houston, Texas to help build an AI CRM designed specifically for cleaning businesses.

A little about me:

I own Texas Nova Cleaning, a Houston-based cleaning company. We are actively building systems around lead capture, AI follow-up, booking, quoting, dispatch, and customer communication. The goal is to turn what we are building for my own company into a real SaaS product for other cleaning businesses.

First product we want to build:

An AI CRM for cleaning companies that helps with:

- lead capture

- instant follow-up

- AI texting

- smart quote forms

- pricing logic

- booking handoff

- customer follow-up

- missed call/text handling

- sales automation

- cleaning-business workflows

What I need:

- 5+ years backend development experience

- API integration experience

- SaaS architecture experience

- Experience building reliable systems

- Someone who can own the product and engineering side

My role:

- Capital

- Marketing

- Sales

- Cleaning industry knowledge

- Real-world testing through Texas Nova Cleaning

Offer:

- 40% equity

- 4-year vesting

- No salary until product launch

- Revenue share from recurring subscriptions after launch

This is not a freelance job. I’m looking for a real technical partner who wants to build a serious product.

Houston preferred. I would like to meet in person.

Interested? Call/text 346-615-8455 or email mrb@texasnovacleaning.com. Or DM me if interested. Houston-based preferred because I want to meet in person and build this closely.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to ask — is it really hard to find the right co-founder in India or network with the right people?
I feel like many people say they want to build, but finding someone trustworthy, committed, and skillful is not easy.

Also do you know any website or app for finding co-founders or networking?

How did you find yours?

I’m open to joining the right startup as a technical co-founder.

Let me be clear about compensation first: I don’t expect a salary at the beginning. I’m open to working on an equity-first basis if the startup, founder, and problem are genuinely worth building.

If you can pay a small amount initially, that’s fine, but it’s not my main requirement. Once we start generating revenue, I would expect a fair payment structure along with equity.

I’m not looking for a short-term job, freelancing work, or a “just build this for me” type of arrangement.

I can help with product decisions, business strategy, technical architecture, development, shipping the product, and even distribution.

A bit about me: I’m the founder of a registered company in India. I’ve already launched my own product, and I’m currently working on distribution and marketing.

I’m looking to collaborate with people who have a serious founder mindset and are building something meaningful.

What I can contribute:

• Product planning and execution
• Technical architecture
• Backend/product development
• Business and go-to-market thinking
• Distribution support
• Long-term decision-making as a founder, not just as a developer

What I’m looking for:

Please don’t DM me with just “Hi” or vague small talk.

Send me a DM answering all the below questions:

1. What stage your startup is in
2. What problem you’re solving
3. How you’re planning to solve it
4. What you currently do
5. What role you expect me to play
6. Why you think I’d be a good fit

If I find it interesting, we can talk and see if there’s a fit.

I’m based in Bangalore, India.

Hi all,

I’m exploring building a new kind of wellness + personal development platform and I’m looking for a potential co-founder or builder to explore it with.
I’m not looking to hire someone for a salary. I’m looking for someone who is interested in building something from the ground up and would want to be part of shaping it if there is alignment.

The idea (high level)
I’m not trying to build another online course or influencer brand.
The concept is a premium membership ecosystem focused on personal transformation and lifestyle design.
It sits at the intersection of:
wellness and health
psychology and human behaviour
identity change and habits
relationships and emotional wellbeing
business and wealth mindset
lifestyle design (food, travel, longevity, etc.)
The core idea is a private membership/community where people continuously evolve and improve their lives across multiple areas, not just one niche.

My background
I come from a mixed background across:
policing, executive operations and business support,
construction and project environments
governance and leadership support roles
Extensive health and wellness studies (Bachelor’s, MBA and other subsequent certifications and accreditations), lived experience navigating significant life transitions and personal rebuilding.
My strength is connecting ideas across disciplines and turning complex human behaviour into practical frameworks and experiences.
I’m strong on:
vision and concept development
people and psychology
communication and storytelling
identifying patterns and opportunities
building community and trust

What I’m looking for
I’m looking for someone who is stronger in:
technical / digital execution
systems and operations
building and launching online platforms
digital marketing / funnels / automation
product development or startup building experience
turning ideas into structured, scalable systems
Ideally someone who has:
built or worked in startups before (bonus)
experience with online communities, SaaS, or memberships (bonus)
strong execution mindset
comfort with ambiguity at early stage
You don’t need to “believe” in everything yet - just be curious enough to explore it properly.

How I see the partnership
At this stage it is early exploration.
If there is alignment, this could evolve into a co-founder relationship where we both contribute in different ways:
I focus on vision, content, community, direction and experience design
You focus on execution, systems, structure and scaling
But initially, it starts with a conversation and small steps, not assumptions.

What I’m not looking for
I’m not looking for an employee
I’m not looking for a social media manager
I’m not looking for someone who only wants a side project with no real involvement
I’m not looking for hype or “quick growth hacks”

Where I’m based
Brisbane, Australia (open to remote collaboration if aligned)

If this resonates
If you’ve built startups, worked in early-stage businesses, or you’re someone who enjoys turning ideas into structured systems, I’d love to connect.
Even if it’s not a perfect fit, I’m open to conversations with people who are in the startup space and understand this kind of build.

Final note
This is still early-stage thinking. I’m not trying to oversell it or pretend it’s fully formed. I’m trying to find the right person to build it with, if that person exists.

I run a medium size business. We've done deals with some major labels and I know how to sell, close, and handle the legal/ops side of things.

Looking to build something new in software, have a few ideas in the B2B/workflow space but honestly more interested in finding the right person than the right idea. Open to exploring yours too.

I'll handle everything that isn't code. You build, I sell. 50/50 equity, clean cap table, no incorporation yet.

Not interested in a quick chat and disappearing I'd want to do a trial build together first (hackathon, 30-day sprint, whatever works) before we commit to anything formal.

Based in Canada. DM me if you want to talk!

Huint is building the human intelligence layer for AI agents. The idea is simple: when AI needs real-world context, proof, opinions, or judgment, Huint lets it request help from real people.
The product is already live.
The iOS app is approved.
The operator side is working.
The MCP/API layer exists.
The vision is bigger than photo tasks.
I need someone who believes this can become a major platform.
The perfect person has some technical understanding, but the real need is marketing, distribution, content, energy, and obsession. I need someone who can help get Huint in front of people, create momentum, test growth channels, talk to users, sell the vision, and keep pushing when it gets hard.
This is not for someone who wants a title.
This is for someone who wants to build.
I’m offering up to 40% equity for the right person. That number is serious because I’m looking for someone who can become a real partner, not a casual advisor.
What I’m looking for:
Strong marketing instincts
Passion for AI, startups, or future-of-work platforms
Some technical understanding
Ability to create content and drive attention
Willingness to talk to users
Startup-level urgency
Belief that AI agents will need access to real human context
Huint is early, but it is real. The rails are built. Now it needs distribution, users, partners, and someone who can help turn a working product into a movement.
If this sounds like something you’d want to help build, DM me with what you’re good at, what you’ve built or marketed before, and why Huint interests you.

I’m a UX Designer with ~10+ years of experience, I’ve got an app idea that I genuinely think has potential. At this stage it’s an idea that might flop spectacularly… or it might become something people love. The only way to find out is to build it.

Looking for someone who enjoys building from scratch and can take the lead on the tech side (mobile + backend). Not looking for a freelancer—more of a collaborator who’s excited to build something together

Im thinking of this as a side project or part time for now and so would consider someone who will look at it the same way!

Hey, I'm a software engineer, 9 years in the industry, currently working full time based out in Europe.

I've been wanting to build something on the side that actually has legs beyond freelancing or contract work. Thats how I started building Agentic Exp (agenticexp.com). The idea is a managed digital employee SMBs hire on retainer. Clients pay for the result, we run agents behind the scenes to deliver it.

I'm technical and can build the agentic workflows, delivery, and infra. What I'm missing is someone with real domain experience inside an industry. Agencies, law, insurance, manufacturing, professional services, finance etc.. Somewhere SMBs already outsource repetitive ops and have budget for it. The more niche it is, the better!

You know the pain from the inside, I know how to automate it.

You'd help pick the vertical wedge, shape the offer around real workflows, and open doors. I own build and ship. Looking for a real partner to brainstorm, sell, and steer the product.

Looking for someone equally serious about building outside their 9-5. Equity on the table for the right fit. Worst case we exchange ideas. Best case we land a pilot client in your industry. DM if interested.

Preferred locations: Europe, USA, Canada, Africa, East Asia

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on my Master’s thesis in Finance and I’m looking for startup founders, angel investors, VCs, or people working in incubators or accelerators who would be willing to have a quick 20–30 minute chat.

My research is about how startups fund their growth and the decisions that help them scale successfully.

If you’re interested, or if you know someone who might be, I’d really appreciate a message.

Thanks a lot for your help!

🇫🇷** F**R

Bonjour à tous,

Je travaille actuellement sur mon mémoire de master en finance et je cherche des fondateurs de start-up, des Business Angels, des VC ou des personnes travaillant dans un incubateur ou un accélérateur qui accepteraient d’échanger avec moi pendant une vingtaine de minutes.

J’étudie la manière dont les start-up financent leur croissance et les décisions qui les aident à se développer durablement.

Si vous êtes disponible, ou si vous connaissez quelqu’un qui pourrait m’aider, n’hésitez pas à m’envoyer un message.

Merci beaucoup pour votre aide !

Traction: Idea stage.

Commitment level: Full-time. I know that's a big ask without pay — I'd rather be upfront about it than soften it and waste your time.

What I'm bringing: No funding and no closed sales yet — what I bring is domain expertise and proven execution. My specialty lies in -> Full stack + Applied AI

Who I want: a technical co-founder — engineering or applied AI — who can build alongside me full-time, is comfortable with ambiguity at this stage, and cares more about shipping and iterating than about a polished deck.

Comment with your background or DM me. Even if this isn't a fit, happy to compare notes.

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for someone with experience in business development and advertising sales to join an established social platform in the art space. We're available on iOS, Android, and the web, with over 500,000 registered users, and have previously partnered with major brands including Clip Studio Paint and Wacom.

So far, we've successfully sold advertising and partnership placements to companies like Clip Studio Paint and XPPen, which proved there's real demand. However, long term ad partnerships is something we've not yet explored (due to resource limitation) but I truly believe there's a big opportunity to 10x our revenue.

The role would involve:

• Reaching out to art-adjacent brands and businesses (think Kickstarter projects, etsy stores to drawing software, and tablet manufacturers. Even indie studios would be interested in having their game in front of thousands of artists who are interested in the online gaming space)
• Selling ad space and sponsored placements on the platform
• Building long-term partnerships

I'm flexible on compensation, open to:

• Equity
• Revenue/profit share
• A structure that makes sense for both of us

While we already have marketplace and subscription models, I believe advertising and brand partnerships have the potential to become one of our biggest revenue streams with the right person leading that effort.

If you've got experience in marketing, sales, business development, sponsorships, or partnerships, and ideally have an interest in the art or creator space, please do reach out.

Software engineer looking to invest my skills into a serious startup (equity or cash)

Hey everyone. I'm a software engineer with experience working remotely for US and EU companies. I also run a small agency auditing iOS and Android apps for UX, onboarding, monetization, and retention, so I know what actually moves the needle for mobile products.

If you're searching for a guy who can wear multiple hats, here I am. Looking to put that experience into something bigger. If you're building a serious startup and need a technical collaborator who gets both engineering and product/growth, let's talk. Open to equity, cash, or a mix.

Only serious people please. Drop a comment or DM.

What if there were a platform where founders could showcase their startup ideas to attract talented people, while individuals interested in startups could explore projects across different domains and join teams that match their interests and skills?

We're currently conducting market research for a platform aimed at solving these challenges, and we'd genuinely appreciate your thoughts.

If you've ever built a startup, wanted to join one, or have experience in the startup ecosystem, your insights would be incredibly valuable.

Please share your honest opinions, experiences, and suggestions in the comments

Hey everyone, I have two years of experience building websites for clients I connected with through Reddit. At this stage, I have the skills and proven experience, but I’m looking to collaborate with someone as a co‑founder to grow further.

Currently, I’m working on a project that audits websites by scraping data from platforms like LinkedIn, Google Maps, and Apollo. It provides insights such as SEO rankings, site performance, and overall quality — helping identify where improvements are needed.

I’m looking to partner with someone experienced in sales, cold calling, and cold emailing. Together, we can combine technical expertise with strong outreach to bring in clients, build better websites, and share the revenue fairly.

If this interests you, feel free to comment or send me a DM so we can discuss further.

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a serious investor and strategic partner for an e-commerce venture that I have been building and refining since 2024.

My background is in Mathematical Statistics and Statistics, and over the past two years I have developed a product research process that identifies high-demand products through a structured data-driven approach.

The focus is on finding products that:

Have proven demand.
Frequently go out of stock.
Have low return rates.
Receive strong customer feedback.
Have repeat purchase potential.
Face less competition because opportunities are identified early.

The goal is simple: remove as much guesswork as possible from product selection and focus on products that are already demonstrating demand in the market.

I have tested this approach on major marketplaces including Amazon, Takealot, and Makro. Whenever I had stock available, products consistently sold through. My challenge has never been generating demand; it has been maintaining inventory levels and scaling operations.

As a solo founder, I have faced several limitations:

Marketplace payout cycles can delay restocking.
Some suppliers require minimum order quantities or established vendor status.
Scaling requires more working capital than I can currently provide alone.
I am also funding my university studies, which means I cannot reinvest every rand back into the business.

I have personally invested heavily into this project because I believe in its potential.

What I am looking for is not simply funding. I am looking for a reliable long-term partner who sees the bigger vision.

The short-term objective is to scale a proven research-driven e-commerce operation.

The long-term objective is to build a South African marketplace that uses data and market intelligence to identify and supply products customers are actively searching for.

To protect the research process and competitive advantage, I will not be sharing detailed methodologies publicly. However, I am happy to discuss performance, validation, and partnership opportunities privately with serious individuals.

If you have experience in e-commerce, logistics, investment, supply chain management, technology, or marketplace businesses and are interested in exploring a partnership, feel free to send me a message.

I'm looking to move quickly with the right partner, but I am more interested in finding the right person than simply finding capital.

If anyone knows where I could find the right support, investor networks, incubators, accelerators, business communities, or people who may be interested in opportunities like this, I would sincerely appreciate your advice and guidance.

Thank you for reading.

I’m exploring something closer to an AI life partner: an AI that actually grows with the user over time, understands their patterns, remembers the important parts of their life, helps them think, keeps them accountable, and becomes more useful the more history it builds with them.

The core belief behind it is simple:

Most AI products today are powerful, but they still feel temporary.

You open them, ask something, get an answer, and leave.

But real relationships are built through accumulated context. Someone becomes valuable to you not only because they are smart, but because they know your history, your habits, your moods, your goals, your contradictions, your patterns, and the way you actually live.

That is the direction I want to build toward.

An AI that can be useful like an assistant, but feel more personal than an assistant.

Something that can help you plan, reflect, stay consistent, remember what matters, notice when you drift, and interact with you in a way that feels more natural over time.

I think the hard parts are not just “which model do we use?”

The hard parts are things like:

How should long-term memory actually work?

What should the AI remember, update, forget, or ignore?

How do you make memory feel natural instead of creepy or forced?

How do you make voice interaction feel real when latency can kill the whole experience?

How proactive should the AI be before it becomes annoying?

How do you design a personality that feels witty, emotionally aware, useful, and human, without becoming fake or cringe?

How do you turn this into a product people actually return to every day?

I’ve been thinking deeply about the product, the user experience, the psychology, the positioning, and the distribution side. I can build and prototype, and I understand the technical direction, but I’m not pretending to be the strongest engineer in the room. I’m looking for someone who is much stronger technically and wants to own that side seriously.

Ideally, I’m looking for someone interested in areas like:

LLMs and agents

Voice AI

Memory systems

Tool use

Consumer apps

Realtime interaction

Personalization

Human-AI interaction

You do not need to have worked on all of these, but you should be excited by the problem and willing to figure things out fast.

What I would bring:

Product thinking

User psychology and positioning

Marketing and distribution

Fast iteration

Obsession with the idea

A strong sense of what the product should feel like

The ability to talk to users, test angles, create content, and shape the overall direction

What I’m looking for:

A technical co-founder, not an employee or agency.

Someone who wants to build from zero.

Someone who can move fast, be honest, argue through ideas, and actually ship.

Someone who is interested in consumer AI beyond simple wrappers.

Someone who believes the next big AI products may come from memory, personality, proactivity, and accumulated context, not just better base models.

This is still early, so I’m mainly looking for alignment, conversations, and someone who might be crazy enough to explore this seriously.

If this resonates with you, send me a DM with:

What you’ve built before

Your technical background

What part of this idea interests you

What you think the biggest risk is

And if you’re not looking to co-found but have thoughts on voice AI, memory, agents, or human-AI interaction, I’d still love to hear your perspective.
