If you're unemployed and looking to build with others, we made something for you

Back in January, we launched a small MVP with a few hundred users. Buildbook is a community network by technical people for technical people. We want to make it easy to find others to meet and build with, so you don't need to go through founder speed dating or communicate with dodgy people online. Everyone is verified and technical.

Today, we launched our latest version of Buildbook to over 23,000 people and 3,000 waitlist users across 850 universities! We're super excited about the growth and look forward to helping every student and professional contribute to their skillset through collaborative learning.

Great concept and I see why this would be a great community. However, the pricing tier for professionals and founders feels steep at $50/month, even for those with steady income.

I'd love to try it first to evaluate the value. Will you offer a trial period or money back guarantee? It's hard to commit and invest time without that.
