GST. Filings. Legal.
Banking. Grants.
Hire. Raise. Grow.
Cold DMs, random referrals, and hackathon tables aren't a strategy for the most important hire you'll ever make.
Startups launched in India annually — without a structured way to find the right co-founder.
Every member declares what they are building, what they need, and how they work — before any match is made. Found surfaces alignment, not just availability.
Optional government-backed Aadhaar verification via DigiLocker. Verified members get a blue tick and priority placement. No Aadhaar number stored.
From co-founder matching to company formation, GST registration, and compliance — Found is the only platform that covers the full founding journey in the Indian context.
Declare where you are — the matches, the pace, and the path all adjust from there.
You've started. You have conviction, early traction, and a clear vision. You need the right person to complete the founding team — someone who fills what you're missing.
You have the idea, the clarity, and the drive. You need a co-founder to build alongside you from day one — someone who makes the vision real.
You've built things. You have deep expertise in engineering, product, design, or growth. You want to co-found — not just contribute. You want equity, not a salary.
Select your builder type. Tell Found what you're building, what you need, and how you work.
Optional government-backed identity verification via DigiLocker. Blue tick on your profile.
Found surfaces curated matches weekly — scored on skills, domain, city, and working style.
Mutual interest confirmed. Found guides you from first conversation to first registered entity.
Every feature designed around intent, verification, and compatibility — not volume or noise.
Matched on what you're building and what you need — not just profile completeness.
A small cohort of vetted builders every week. Intentional by design.
Both parties confirm before a connection is made. No unsolicited messages.
BLR · MUM · DEL · HYD · PNE — build with someone in the same city.
