Would You Grant Service Access for Automated Invoice Collection? I'm working on an invoice management project where users currently have to manually upload invoices from their various services. I’ve been exploring ways to automate this process by having users invite me (or the system) to their services. This would allow the project to retrieve invoices directly and upload them automatically. However, my main concern is how users might perceive the security aspect. Asking them to connect a 3rd-party service could raise red flags, especially since not all platforms provide granular roles to limit access to just billing details.... 2 0 replies

There are a couple of additional services I want to provide to stand out from the rest of the competition. Who here has done this, and if so, would you care to share your journey and expectations of this type of start up? From hiring devs, to raising... 3 0 replies

Looking for Creators to Grow Together and Support Each Other! Hey everyone! I’ve realized that growing on social media platforms from scratch is really tough. It turns out that posts, reels, and stories that get likes, saves, and comments have much more reach. That’s why I’m working on creating a small group within my niche where we can support each other and help grow. The idea is simple: we share our posts in the group so we can help each other with likes, comments, saves, and more. This way, we increase each other’s reach and engagement. This group is... 4 0 replies
What are some of the best places to find startups that need technical founders? I'm a senior tech. I have experience managing teams, and building software on anything from server side to mobile, with some previous startup experience. I've been out of the startup world for the last 10 years or so, and I'm looking for something to sink my teeth into, either part time, or in full-time "get it done" mode. I'm also open to finding a founder *(or angle)* on the business side that needs a new project. *(like everyone, i've got my little black book of potentials I'm willing to... 4 0 replies
Curious: Video Content Strategy? Hey everyone, I'm looking to make a call out to any folks who is building something aimed at developers and a technical audience. I’ve been thinking a lot about how developer-focused companies educate their audience, and I wanted to ask: **are explainer videos something you’re considering for your product?** I fee like explaining how your product solves a problem is half the battle. Docs like tutorials, concepts and walkthroughs are great (already proven), but for some, a clear, engaging video can bridge the gap between “I kind of get... 1 0 replies
Seeking Advice on Pre-Seed Fundraising and VC Outreach Hi everyone, I’ve finalized my pitch deck and am currently raising pre-seed funding to test commercial and field technical viability over 24 months. At this stage, I have a market opportunity supported by independent market research and an LOI with the university to collaborate (engaged as consultants under a specific scope of work to navigate IP-related concerns that otherwise future investors would be concerned about). For context, the venture is based in Australia and it is related to Renewable Energy technologies. While I’m familiar with the general fundraising process... 2 0 replies

Rethinking Fundraising: Could This Model Help Charities and Businesses Thrive Together? Hi everyone, After lurking on this board for months I have been building out an idea that has really grabbed at my heart. I’ve been working on an idea for a platform that connects businesses and charities in a way that creates value for everyone involved. I feel passionately about the mission, but I want to make sure that I am not running in blind and want to see what major hurdles/deficiencies there are with my vision. The concept is simple: Charities can raise funds for their mission without... 5 0 replies
Should I accept stock or just quit the startup entirely? I started working for a startup part-time for free a couple of months ago. They told me they wanted to bring on another co-founder to their team and I was a perfect fit. I’m a software engineer for my full-time job, so this is just a side project. I also have young children, so that takes a lot of time as well. I made these things clear from the start that I can’t work on this full-time and the other co-founders don’t either. I didn’t think it would be... 1 0 replies

Resources on how founders did their early interviews to validate/refine ideas and offerings I would like some resources on what (didnt) worked on how early founders did their early validation, especially for B2B ideas. It is true that if one cant find people for early interviews, it will be hard to find people to sell to. But even if one is from the same field and/or can search for or know appropriate people to reach out to, there is not a lot of battle stories and resources on 'how' people went about it from there, and what worked and equally what didnt.... 1 0 replies
How I Lost a Client Over a Contract (and What I’m Doing About It) A few months ago, I lost one of my best clients. Not because of bad service or missed deadlines, but because of a simple contract mistake. I was juggling too many tasks managing clients, sending invoices, keeping the business running. The contract renewal date slipped past me, and by the time I realized, it was too late. They moved on to another service provider. That experience hit me hard. I’m not a lawyer, and hiring one for every contract just isn’t realistic. I tried using templates, but customizing them... 5 0 replies
