For solo founders · pre-seed · anywhere
Your co-founder problem is someone else's too.
Two or three solo founders whose gaps mirror each other's strengths. Each gives 5–10 hours a week to the other's company. You get an invested thinking partner, and both companies improve their odds.
A pre-seed bridge, not a permanent setup. Once capital comes in, investors expect full focus.
No cross-ownership. Cap tables stay clean.
Cover IP, confidentiality and how to exit. Then stop.
How it works
Browse everyone. See your best fits first.
Tell us what you bring, what you need, and whether you want a founder nearby or are happy working remotely. Every approved founder can browse the whole directory by category. By default it's sorted by how well each founder mirrors you.
When you find someone, send an intro request. Contact details are shared only when both of you say yes.
The idea isn't new
It's how co-ops have always worked.
Hardware co-ops let thousands of independent store owners pool what none could afford alone. Time banks run on a simple rule: an hour given is an hour earned. Founder Finder applies both to the hardest early-stage gap.
Best case: a true co-founder match. Worst case: two founders get better, faster.
