I am from a non-tech background (finance guy to be specific). I am aiming big and want to start a fintech startup but I don't have any CS engineer friends to rely on.
I invite you all to guide me how to find a tech co-founder or even a partial-CTO who can program my vision into an app and also maintain it until I can afford a full time one.
I know that I can get it done with any software company but I have trust issues in sharing my idea with a stranger (knowing that how easily can an idea be stolen).
Idea theft is more an insecurity issue than a real issue. If you're cut out for it, your idea will only work if you can do it.
Instead of waiting for a tech co-founder, get your MVP built from an agency/freelancer.
Don't be afraid of sharing your ideas - idea validation is an important part.
Ideas are penny a pound. It's the execution and intent that matters.
I am interested - hit me up scroll@proton.me

Learn how to do some basic programming. Learn about product management and basics of system design. Do this for 3 months and try to absorb as much information as possible about the dev process for mobile apps/websites.
Start hitting up technical friends for conversations and ask them about their work, what they build/etc. flex your product/business sense by asking how the technical matches the business needs/requirements. This will be difficult since many engineers work on scalability/performance and may not impact business goals but you will learn/gain empathy nonetheless.
By the time you do this within 6 months I’m sure you will have enough of an idea/network to convince people to work with you.
Use grimoire on gpt store and GPT premium subscription. Use system prompts to get the best outputs. Hack at it till you have an MVP.
You might also need a design/ marketing guy btw. And all of them will demand payment for their work.
I have a product idea that I want to build. It is not something super unique or innovative. A few products are already in the market to solve the use case but it's fairly simple to build and has a decent potential to reach 1 mil ARR. The...
Let’s say you have and an Idea, you’ve built MVP using no code, freelancers etc, the MVP is doing amazing. Now you want to have a technical cofounder onboarded? and you’re stuck you don’t know anybody, how do you go about it?
As a non technical founder, i can go as far as prototyping an app on figma, or make detailed wireframes of what I want the app to be. Right now, after months of brainstorming and research, I would say I have a pretty good idea of what i ...
I don’t have a friend or colleague who can be my cofounder for my Commerce startup idea.
How do people find their co founder these days?
A friend of mine is looking for a stellar tech cofounder for starting up. Pls suggest some stellar people to hit for this.
