Most "looking for co-founder" posts disappear into the void.

I found a platform where you post what you need (technical co-founder, marketing co-founder, whatever), and interested people can chat with you directly. No forms, no waiting, just real conversations.

Anyone else struggling to find the right co-founder?

I run astartup discovery platform(#Nowlaunch.in) for founders currently 230+launches, and I'm tired of seeing good products die in silence because founders don't know how to get their first 10 users.

So here's what I'm doing today: the first 5 startups that launch on my platform will get free manual promotion — I'll personally post about your product to 10 targeted Reddit users who might actually care. Not bot spam. Real, thoughtful outreach.

So if you've built something and you're sitting on it because you don't know where to start — this is your sign. Launch it today. I'll personally help you get your first eyeballs on it.

No catch. No payment. Just trying to build something useful for founders.

Day 1 of launching my startup platform, I bought Reddit ads. Genuinely thought impressions were everything. "If people see it, they'll come." Classic first-timer move.

They didn't come.

So I shifted to obsessing over signups. Got decent numbers. Felt good for a week. Then realized signups mean nothing if nobody actually launches on the platform. So I tracked launches. Then I watched whether those launches got traction — real views, messages, engagement.

Then came the metric nobody talks about: re-signs. Not new users. People who came back. That's when I knew something was actually working.

Each phase taught me the previous metric was lying to me.

Impressions without intent = noise. Signups without activation = vanity. Launches without traction = graveyard. Traction without return = a fluke.

Re-signs? That's the first honest signal I've seen.

And now I'm staring at the next phase — converting any of this into paid users. Which means I have to figure out what people actually value enough to open their wallets for. No roadmap for that yet.

Founders building platforms (not just apps) — does this metrics progression resonate with you? What broke your illusions first?

I run NowLaunch— a free launchpad where founders showcase products and connect with early users. We're seeing 250+ daily visitors and 5–7 new launches every day.

I'm now looking to partner with:

  • Founder tools (AI copilots, analytics, marketing automation)
  • Communities or platforms where founders hang out
  • Growth/marketing products targeting early-stage startups
  • Indie hacker ecosystems

What I'm thinking:

  • API integrations (e.g., auto-post launches to your platform)
  • Cross-promotion (feature each other's tools/communities)
  • Co-building something useful (like a founder directory, launch checklist, etc.)

What's in it for you: Direct access to 250+ daily founder eyeballs who are actively building and launching. Most are looking for tools, feedback, and visibility.

If you're building something for founders and see a potential fit, drop a comment or DM. Happy to explore specific ideas.

I built this alone. No funding. No team.

185 founders have launched on NowLaunch so far. Some found co-founders. Some got their first users. Some just finally felt real.

I'm trying to hit 200 before midnight tonight.

If you've built something and never shown it to the world — I'm not asking you to be ready. I'm asking you to just show up.

15 spots. That's it.

Have you launched your startup anywhere yet?
