Frequently asked questions

Should I choose a cofounder platform based on its member count?

Relevant skills, availability, expectations, and a productive conversation matter more to your decision than a headline network size. Use a small joint project to learn whether the relationship works.

Can I explore before I have a finished product?

Yes. Cofounder discovery is useful while shaping an idea or working on an existing startup. Make your current stage and commitment clear in your profile.

What can I do after meeting someone?

Discuss the work through messaging, explore a trial partnership, and organize shared work in collaboration. The decision to form a company remains yours.
