TractionPitch: Validation Showcase Platform for Non-Technical SaaS Founders

Cool pitch, but as someone who is been on the dev side—most looking for cofounder posts die unless you already have users or traction. Even a small MVP + early users will make the right technical partner take you seriously.

respect for going after this early — takes a different mindset to think beyond ecom and into SaaS I think the main challenge you’ll run into isn’t finding technical people, it’s getting the *right* ones interested from a technical cofounder’s perspective, a few things usually matter a lot: – how validated is “validated”? (actual users / revenue vs just research) – what exactly is the problem + who’s already paying to solve it? – what does the initial build actually look like (scope / complexity)? – and how is equity / ownership structured? right now the post has strong energy and vision, but it’s still pretty high-level most good engineers have seen a lot of “idea + vision” posts, so what tends to stand out more is: → concrete traction or very specific insight into the problem even something like: “we’ve spoken to X users, Y of them are actively trying to solve this, current workaround is Z” goes a long way also worth thinking about: you’re not just asking someone to build — you’re asking them to commit long-term so the clearer you are about risk/reward upfront, the better the match you’ll get curious — do you already have any early users or people waiting for this?
