ProblemHunt▲552Hi HN, I’m a solo founder. I built ProblemHunt after noticing a common pattern: many founders start with ideas and solutions, but don’t spend enough time understanding real problems. ProblemHunt is a simple place where people share problems they actually face in work or life. Developers and founders can browse these problems and use them as a starting point for building products. So far: – ~5,000 users – 150+ real problems submitted – 100% organic growth This is still early, and I’m trying to understand if this is genuinely useful. I’d really appreciate feedback: – Would you use something…

Hey everyone, I just launched https://FoundersMatch.ai , a tool built to solve one of the most frustrating startup problems: finding a truly compatible co-founder. Instead of matching on just interests or skills, we use: * AI-powered compatibility analysis * Behavioral science frameworks * Startup psychology and proven founder-matching models Why it matters: 65% of startups fail due to co-founder conflict. And it usually takes months to even find someone potentially compatible. Founders Match helps you: * Avoid mismatches early * Get detailed insights before a call * Match based on…

Hi Guys, I got overwhelming support and feedback from my last post about secondfounder.com but still, I felt the need of connecting founders together so that they can together buy a side project. It's very often when a non-technical founder buys a project they have to find a technical founder to take that project further. Today I have implemented this feature in secondfounder.com Link: https://secondfounder.com/find-founder Your feedback is always welcome. Thanks

Hi guys I know ur time is valuable so I will keep this short. Ever since I was in uni I saw that its been difficult for people finding collaborators for your project/startup. Building something is easier than ever but finding collaborators has never been more difficult. so I interviewed 1083 users (yea i know thats a lot but i needed some validation hehe). Half of them did not hear about yc cofounder matching and other platforms and the ones who were using them still found it quite painful and exhausting and they got no one from there. I found that in most cases for my users the only…

I believe that doing /something/ with someone over and over again is the best way to meet a cofounder. When I get enough people (6-20) in a given city, I will organize an event along the lines of playing board games, going to a driving range, or volunteering in some way. The main point is that it's not just people drinking or standing around, they have to be active participants in the activity. The goal is for you to go to a number of these events, see how others behave and start to build relationships with them. Then you go off and build something with them. Would love to hear…

hey y'all -- can you please tell us if our job search tool sucks? :D we built it using an investor platform called Harmonic.ai to gather startup data, then contextualize it so that job seekers could find out about the most exciting startups hiring first (like if they just raised, growing headcount fast, have an ex-unicorn founder, etc). pretty sure we're the first platform doing anything like this. anyway, let me know what you think. really excited to launch this thing soon! getting feedback from the hn community first is really fun :)

I’ve been building Cofounder Hunt after seeing the same problem over and over: co-founder matching platforms rely on profiles, personality tests, or long bios, but not on the one thing that actually matters — what someone has built. Most co-founder attempts fall apart because expectations aren’t aligned early. People move at different speeds, have different definitions of “MVP,” or talk a bigger game than they execute. Traditional platforms don’t solve this. Cofounder Hunt takes a different approach. Instead of starting with chatter, you start with evidence: ideas with structure, prototypes,…

I'm gauging interest for a service that would help connect devs/designers/copywriters with folks who have short term projects (a few days or weeks of work). The projects would range in value, but should ideally be at least a few $100. Through Forrst, there are already thousands of such people available to work, it's just a matter of if this is interesting to the other side. If it is, would you leave your info? Thanks a ton.

We’ve been working on a playground that showcases what our cofounder-matching mobile app can do (https://coffeespace.com). It’s designed as a swipe gallery (similar to Hinge), but instead of matching romantically, you’re swiping through profiles of potential cofounders. The profiles are simulated and representative of the real users you'll find on our app. You can even try setting filters to refine your matches. Why we built it: Our mission is simple: to create more high-quality cofounder team-ups in the world. In the startup space, finding the right cofounder can be challenging,…
