Building Blynk — a visual sharing platform (images/video/GIFs) — looking for a technical co-founder
​
Not going to oversell this. Here's the situation.
I've been building Blynk for a few months. It's a visual content platform — images lead at 55% of the experience, with video and GIFs as supporting formats. The whole point is that images still matter and deserve a home that treats them properly, instead of being buried under algorithmically pushed Reels that nobody asked for.
The product is built on a couple of things no incumbent can credibly offer right now:
- Zero compression across all content. Full resolution, always.
- A legally binding guarantee that user content never trains our AI. Meta's been doing this and people are furious. We're the clean alternative from day one.
- Real creator monetization without follower thresholds: Paid Collabs (in-app creator deals with escrow), Brand Deals marketplace (brands post briefs, creators pitch, everything handled on-platform), platform revenue share funded by ads and subscriptions.
Current stack: React + Vite, Tailwind CSS, Firebase. Stripe Connect for the payments layer. Nothing over-engineered, solid foundation.
I'm the product and strategy side. I can prototype and I understand the tech stack but infrastructure decisions at scale need someone who actually owns that. That's the gap.
Co-founder, not a hire.Meaningful equity. I'll show you everything built so far before we talk if you want to vet it first.
Looking for someone who's shipped something real (side projects count), cares about why we're building this not just what, and wants to own something rather than just work on it.
