Denis de Bernardy | Hungary | http://mesoconcepts.com Job-tech. I'm finding very strong market signals, and I've identified what in my experience (helped dozens of businesses improve their business prospects) is a sane path to profitability with minimal investment. I'm currently moving forward alone, but quite frankly I'd love to have a partner or two to do the technical parts so I can focus on fund raising (if neede…

#52Able | Remote (US/Europe) | https://able.bio/ Building a LinkedIn alternative for programmers. Users can earn skills on their profiles through code challenges, write blog posts and find jobs. Looking for a technical co-founder with strong Python/Django experience. Have built most of the MVP already but need someone to share the load and help engage with the developer community.
I'll try any LinkedIn alternative these days, since they have become so bloated. But I've decided not to register myself with Able, since GitHub registration asks for the following, which I don't agree: > Able by RhettTrickett > wants to access your account > Personal user data > Full access > This application will be able to read and write all user data. This includes the following: > Private email addresses > Priva…

#53Re: Ask HN: Who is seeking a cofounder?
#54I'm considering bringing in a CEO-like role to lead https://hackclub.com/bank/, which we launched a few months ago on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19257241).
The product has started to come into its own, crossing $600K in transactions a couple weeks ago. I want to bring in someone who can come in with a founder-like role and work with me to flesh out the vision, strategy, and lead the charge to get us to $6M in transactions over the next 12 months. The potential isn't just high school hackathons: it's every US nonprofit with an annual budget of under ~$300K (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiscal_sponsorship).
The product is revenue generating, we're a well-funded growing nonprofit that recently won the $1M Frank Foundation grant (https://grant.frank.ly/), and we have two major partnerships for HC Bank close to closing, but we need the right person to make them happen. These two partnerships would add an additional $4M in transactions over the next 12 months alone.
Interested? I'm zach@hackclub.com. Best person for this role is obsessive, product-minded, deeply technical, and wants to be a CEO, not a product manager.

#55Looking for a business partner. I’m a designer and developer with one successful small company built in the past. Looking to do it again. I can execute a mobile / web product which scales on Amazon AWS. Think local scale (millions of users) not internet scale (billions). Like a lifestyle business. I have my own ideas but open to any new idea. Anything works which can be executed by a few people. I’m interested in a 6…

Not the OP, but have you found that people really join these WiFi networks? At least in the US, it seems like most people use their cell data instead.

#58Box Factura | Mexico | https://www.boxfactura.com Local accounting-ish startup is looking into expansion, altough going global would be very hard (accounting is very different in Mexico), the whole country is a very big market. We are profitable and the business is growing. Looking for a sales/PR cofounder.

#59I believe I have something that can compete on Amazon's level on the consumer goods side.
The idea is to build a web/mobile application where customers are able to order refillable, reusable consumer goods such as groceries and shampoos. Once they are used up, we pick it up clean it and have it ready for refill.
Vision for the future: Your in house AI that orders all your daily essentials not on a subscription basis but based on your beliefs and behaviors, providing you the power over companies competing for your attention.
Competitors already in it: goodeggs.com loopstore.com Amazon (many others)
The milkman model is not a new idea but I know I have the correct perspective to make this work. Let me know if you are interested in hearing more.

#60I'm interested in working on a lifestyle business rather than chasing a unicorn. I have the classic spreadsheet of ideas tucked away, but I'm certainly open to others ideas.
Strong preference for B2B. No experience in blockchain or ai.
In my previous attempt at putting together a business, I felt pain from a lack experience talking to customers so I spent a few years in a customer facing role as a senior success and support engineer for a fairly well known startup. I now love working with sales & marketing, grinding customer development for ideas, but still keep my coding chops sharp.
My email is in my profile.
