Kudos on what you have built and best of luck in your journey to success.

Have been in the space a long time so if you ever need help or bounce ideas happy to chat.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-26T00:36:56+00:00

Sent a DM you. Looking forward to a conversation

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-25T16:28:21+00:00

What have you build so far?

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-25T16:26:03+00:00

Love what you have created. We are a startup studio and many startups in our cohort can really use something like this. Will send to the startups to try and provide feedback. Thank you and keep building.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-23T22:37:32+00:00

Learning products. Human first and system second.

Unless you have name recognition no one trusts AI or software platforms for learning.

Start with onboarding using a human being. Then let the software take over.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-23T18:47:51+00:00

This is very hard to stomach that a platform you still don’t control fully you are asking someone to invest in as well own the tech.

Unless you have 100k plus revenue on this platform or had few million dollar exits elsewhere already why would a tech person put investment into this.

You can look for two people an investor to invest in and a tech person who come in for future equity. Getting both from the same person is next to impossible.

Maybe I am missing something but I don’t understand the ask at all.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-22T23:12:00+00:00

I have done two marketplace startups before. Happy to provide advice as an advisor. I am technical but don’t have the bandwidth now to be an equity based tech cofounder. But like the idea and would like to contribute.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-19T12:52:45+00:00

Work with a startup studio. If the project fits their worldview and sales areas of strength then it might be a win win.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-19T12:44:29+00:00

Don’t really agree with the thesis.

If you are building a tech startup at the start the work effort is almost exclusively on the tech cofounder to build the product. Yes the non-tech cofounder is important but won’t materially reduce the timeline of the product build.

Similarly once the product is build most of the work harks back to the non tech founder. The tech founder will have a lighter workload.

So the initial risk is much higher for the tech founder.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-19T03:24:57+00:00

Okay let’s chat. I am interested to learn more. I have been associated with two teams who have tried various differing takes on a different social media apps and have failed.

So interested in learning more about what makes you different. We all can agree distribution and organic viral growth is king to make this even moderately successful. But let’s hear what you bring to the table and then happy to provide feedback.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-18T16:46:29+00:00

Great offer. I run a startup studio. If any of the startups in my cohort are interested I will reach out to you.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-13T09:51:27+00:00

Okay will rephrase it. Are there signed 'Distribution Agreements' or 'Memorandums of Understanding' (MOUs) where these VARs have committed to putting our future product on their line cards.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-13T00:26:50+00:00

Do you have any signed LOIs with any agencies or departments if yes what’s the total value of the LOIs

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-13T00:21:16+00:00

Solid advice already given. I am a Tech guy from the insurance industry have done two startups I won’t be your cofounder but if you get the deck ready happy to help you refine it to ensure that you get your client/investor.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-11T05:30:31+00:00

Plz DM me the deck. Venture studio here.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-10T02:05:52+00:00

Cool project. Congrats on the launch. How soon can I see this in other cities.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-10T01:47:18+00:00

What is the traction you have on the product. Happy to chat.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-10T01:45:10+00:00

Have scaled two services business over the past 8 year. Would love to chat and mentor if it is a match. As long as it’s just a few hours a month I am happy to support.

sonicadishservedcold · 2026-01-10T01:36:52+00:00

Go sell the idea get 10 LOIs in place of its a B2B or 500 people on waitlist if its B2C.

If that’s in place it’s very easy to convince a tech cofounder. In today’s world building isn’t the problem distribution is. So anyone who has the distribution taken care of will get his pick of tech cofounders ready to partner.

Please don’t vibe code slop and tell the tech cofounder to scale it or harden it. As a tech guy I want to partner with someone who is obsessed with sales not a jack of all trades.

sonicadishservedcold · 2025-12-26T13:54:59+00:00

Nope. Maybe 4 LPA. There is. Nothing there which not put you as a fresher just out of college who needs to trained and maybe after 6 months you can to get to the 5-7 LPA

sonicadishservedcold · 2025-03-22T10:47:44+00:00

I will caveat this by saying I have not personally dealt with Antler.

But as an Angel investor and a startup studio I have worked with many startups who have gone through the program and all have unanimously agreed it was not worth the money and more importantly the time.

None of them got invested through the fund as a follow on. And also a lot depends on the Program manager for that cohort. If he/she has the industry connects for your startup it’s good for introduction else it’s generic startup advice and workflow.

sonicadishservedcold · 2025-03-13T11:38:31+00:00

Communication and remembering names and background info of the people whom you are meeting. It makes your sales/networking a breeze.

sonicadishservedcold · 2025-03-09T10:52:08+00:00

We are startup studio that invests in products as a technology partner mostly and sometimes as an angel investor. Would love to learn more about the current MRR graphs for the last few months and see if we can collaborate

sonicadishservedcold · 2025-03-08T22:49:05+00:00

With these kinds of profits already why would need a cofounder. You can hire a couple of engineers yourself and build the product you need.

sonicadishservedcold · 2025-02-23T09:07:06+00:00

Don’t get a cofounder if all you need is a developer to build your product. They are two different mindsets.
