1. Make your signal clear
Your profile holds the context that matters: what you are learning or building, your skills, commitment, progress, and the kind of collaboration you are looking for. Clear context creates better introductions.
- Show what you are building or learning.
- Describe the contribution you can make.
- Keep your profile current as your direction changes.
2. Share the work
Use the feed to share an idea, a company update, a useful question, a photo, or a poll. Give people enough context to respond thoughtfully instead of starting from zero.
- Post progress, not just polished outcomes.
- Ask specific questions when you need help.
- Use polls to test an early decision.
3. Discover with intent
Discovery helps you find people and startups by the details that matter early: industry, stage, founder intent, commitment, and location. Co-founder matching goes further: it pairs you with people whose skills answer what you said you need, shows every reason for the match, and keeps your interest private until it is mutual.
- Read before reaching out.
- Use one specific reason for contact.
- Treat compatibility as a prompt for conversation, not a ranking of people.
4. Meet in person
Members host events for themselves, their startup or a community: a coffee, a demo night, a working session. Registering gets you a ticket with a QR code and a calendar invite by email, and the host checks people in at the door.
- Host for a startup you run or a community you can post in.
- A full event keeps a waitlist and hands a freed seat to the first waiting.
- Nobody sees who else is coming except the host.
5. Start on the right footing
Before a lawyer is involved, a founding team can agree the basics with the founders' agreement template: the equity split, vesting, the decisions that need everyone, and what happens when someone leaves, written for companies in India.
- It is a template, not legal advice.
- Nothing you type in it leaves your browser.
- Take the document to a lawyer before anyone signs.
