I am. Currently at 2.5k MRR working alone. We build tools journalists love by aggregating, benchmarking and integrating hundreds of APIs under a single web interface.
Our tech is a 'lingua franca' of APIs. We started with newsrooms but the benefits apply pretty much to any large Enterprise. Newsrooms were a good first vertical because they are desperate for innovation.
I'd like to build something with someone. I work full time so it would have to start as a side project. I'm in Ireland so someone who likes remote or is in the same timezone would work best.
Software developer with engineering background from Germany here. I work for a startup but am keen to found my own. I‘m looking for cofounders preferably from Germany.
I'm currently building something that has shown great product market fit at another company, although they aren't pursuing it, and is in a big industry. I am technical, and am looking for a technical cofounder. If you can build web and mobile software, send me an email at voz14005@protonmail.com. Preferred location is SF or LA.
Not a co-founder per-say, but I'm open to connecting or collaborating with other makers in San Francisco. I'm a software engineer with experience building web applications and services. Most recently working on Dapps/Defi, but interested in other spaces as well. Let's grab coffee!
SF-based. Legal tech. Lots of domain expertise. Shopping a product for acquisition now, hoping to build another. I'm moderately proficient in Python but need a technical partner. Ideally looking for someone who is into NLP. Reply here if interested in chatting.
Nice to meet you. EU-based, also LegalTech with multiple companies (not all visible on LN) and a few interesting partners. Feel free to say hi: https://www.linkedin.com/in/acmichaelschmitz/
I don't see a way to reach you via your profile/bio except to fill out the Extractable contact form. I've added an email to my profile if you want to get in touch.
I am!
I am looking for third co-founder, ideally someone interested in the game industry, who could take the role of CTO. Not making a game,ha.
There's one other technical co-founder who has been working on our mobile software. Located in Chicago, but would like someone in the Bay Area. I will likely be flying there this November if you want to meet up.
Me: Back End / Full Stack. Cloud to Data wiring to Android / Web but no design.
Looking For:
A: Help as a primary co-founder building a back end, or the core infrastructure.
B: I have an idea I've been working on for content creators, initially authors and editors. But it is very design / front end heavy. So am looking for a front end dev.
UX Designer at Google with some front end chops interested in working on a practical project that solves a real user problem. Reply here and let's chat! Based in the Bay Area.
Last month I did a week of user interviews in one of my customers office I noticed for the first time that their face light up as soon as they know I'm the guy that made the "new thing".
That made me realize I'm actually making journalists lives better with my software.
I left a comment with more details in this post. I'm a software engineer with plenty of professional experience and design is not my strong.
hey I am a senior software engineer at FB, I am not looking for a co-founder specifically but I would love to expand my network and just chat, pick each other brains and whatnot. Not sure how to contact you, I'll keep an eye on this thread for the next few days, hope to talk to you soon!
I'll be relocating to Singapore in a few months, and I'm looking to connect with someone local who might be interested in working on a mobile AI (natural language) platform. Ideally someone with some business, marketing or design chops.
Remote collaborations would be great, but probably not something I'll explore until after I relocate (early 2020).
Building a mobile-first business directory and messenger for LatAm and rest of developing world. Looking for a co-founder with product and marketing chops.
Front end focused dev who is always interested in building interesting things. I built a geocoder (API->NLP->NodeJS->Postgres/PostGIS) and sold it earlier this year. Been working mostly on React/GraphQL incl mapping for US dev shop this year. My timezone is 4 hrs after US west coast.
I'm a Melbourne, Australia based developer that's been working on a product that can launch any pull request or commit into a self contained, sharable environment accessed via a simple link. A few people are working in this space but my product has a few features that others don't have which I can go over.
I'm at the point where we use the tool continuously at my day job but I'm fairly time poor to take it beyond that. I'd be looking to connect with others that have built and promoted similar developer tools.
Both of these are frontend only feature previews however, they assume an available backend to connect to the frontend code. My tool (Stagehand) will preview the entire stack, provided you can run your setup in Docker. Considering the last three places I've worked all used Docker Compose to run the local development environment and Docker in the CI pipeline, it was a no brainer to use it for the previews as well.
My main differentiator, aside from running the full stack, you can also run supporting services alongside the preview. In our case, we run an emulated S3 endpoint and a tool to catch outgoing mail (it poses as an SMTP server). This means that if you're testing a piece of functionality that uploads to S3, you can easily complete the action then change to the S3 emulator and see the file is uploaded to the correct place. Likewise with the email catcher, it makes it really easy to see invite emails being sent out, or welcome emails after signup.
Other examples might include a frontend to your database, e.g. PGAdmin, so you could directly change the database in the preview then test the result.
The original use case was so that I could easily share my work with others in my 9 - 5 job. However, as I've taken more responsibility over the team here I'm using it more for testing others work before it gets merged to master.
While the system works and is stable, documentation is ...non existent. I'd need to help you get setup to use the service (and it would give me an excuse to write the docs as I do it)
I've been working on an interesting problem at the intersection of B2B and ML. Built a strong pipeline of high growth companies in the bay area. Currently, at $20k ARR with an MVP I built myself.
I'm an engineer turned founder. Looking for another technical co-founder who's either into ML (or) into general app building.
I'm based out of SF and would love to chat! Email in my account.
I'm in the space where B2B and ML collide with the Industrial space. Always looking for a ML solution that fits the need and can offer to the large groups that are interested.
Building Instant group chat for nearby loosely affiliated people (does the world need yet another chat app?, surprisingly it does!)
What I am building unlocks value and solves problems of current options. Maintains privacy, keeps out randos.
No, isn’t one of those been done million times, who is around you, just based on GPS, apps).
The magic happens in the backend, looking for someone who will focus on development of all server-side logic, You can make mobile apps that can handle lots of concurrent chats/chatrooms, thousands of users. It starts out simple but gets complex, lots of interesting problems to solve. More concerned about it works than how it looks, so basic frontend skills would be nice, but again back matters more
Basic MVP already built with React Native. You would not be building from scratch, but adding features (some very basic like social login and images) then followed by more complex things. Later we can do swift/kotlin apps for iOS/Android if needed.
You being based in the Bay Area would be nice but not a requirement. Built other chat apps before or something like that? Say hi. email in profile.
Looking forward to working with someone who likes to move fast and make something pretty cool. Its a big market we would be targeting.
I need a business guy to run all of the legal/operations day to day stuff. I have a business in the home heating oil space that I only want to run as a CTO.
I am also open to programming all of your ideas as well in a separate biz.
Please email :) the alias is "dogchienwoof" at google's email service
I’m looking for someone with deep learning experience to work on music generation/synthesis ideas. This would be more like a side project at first, and (depending on the quality of the PoC we build) can lead to a startup. I have 5 years of DL research experience in several areas (vision, speech, NLP).
I am. I’m building an automated design tool that converts design tool files into auto generated code or a templating language that can be used to render views / flows natively on web / native mobile. I’m looking for someone who can help with web front end and backend, I work horizontally across the stack on iOS / Android building SDKs and native mobile experiences. I have 6 years of experience in the industry, have been part of a successful acquisition and now mostly highly interested in building this design company idea.
Why am I building this? Companies waste too much resources on building design then handing off later — essentially 2X the work. Giving designers / product people this sort of technology would empower them to validate their ideas quickly — essential to finding product market fit quickly.
Where I’m currently at:
- I have an exceptionally fast text editor
- I can convert 3 of the major mobile design tool files into a templating language than can be used to render native views on the fly
- Mac app centered around this technology
- Lots of hard problems solved around the current idea
What I’m looking for:
- someone who is as excited about this idea as I am
- someone experienced in backend and web front end
- Next steps are finalizing UX / porting a web app for people to use (sort of like Figma)
- integrate in analytics services
- versioning system for designers
Reply to this post if anyone is interested I’ll post an email to connect to if anyone cares.

Hit me up: moura at the oko.ai domain
I'm also looking for someone to build a side project with.
I've got a few things I'm working on but they aren't necessarily huge money makers.
Have co-founded 2 startups (1 successful, 1 that failed). I’ve learnt a lot from both.
My blog is here - www.simongilbert.net
(There are 2 news articles linked on my blog regarding my first startup, for some clarity on the product).
Feel free to reach out to me on LinkedIn or Github.
* EDIT *
It’s worth noting that I have a spreadsheet of ideas for stuff I’d like to build, it’s just finding the right people (even if they’re remote).
