You& — Peer Support and Second Opinions for Founders

You& matches you 1-on-1 with founders facing similar walls — to think out loud, build alongside, and actually talk to. Async, private, real people.

Every founder needs a co-founder sometimes.

The higher you build, the fewer people you can truly talk to. Not because the problems get smaller — they get bigger. But because there's no one in your situation who you trust enough to be fully honest with.

Some founders have a co-founder to turn to. But what if you don't? Or what if the problem involves them? You can't go to your team. Most communities are too noisy, too public, or too generic for the real stuff.

So you carry it. And figure it out alone. And most founder community apps don't go deep enough for the real conversations. But there is another way.

A second opinion from someone who understands.

You& is the founder sounding board that cuts through the noise. Instead of a community of hundreds, you get matched with up to 3 founders who are facing a wall shaped like yours — people who get the work, and get you.

Async, so it fits your schedule. Fully private — a confidential founder network, not a public community — so you can be honest about what's actually going on. Sometimes it stays a conversation. Sometimes it becomes more.

How You& works.

01

Share your challenge

Share what you're working through — a decision, a situation, something you need to think out loud about.

02

Get matched

You& pairs you with up to 3 founders in a similar situation. Not random — matched for how closely your walls align.

03

Work through it together

Real founders. Async, private. Reply when you're ready — even at 11pm Sunday.

Built for founders who are building alone.

  • Solo founders who need someone who thinks like them
  • Founders navigating decisions they can't share with their team
  • Founders who want perspective from outside their bubble
  • Solo founders using You& as a co-founder finder — someone who thinks like them, works like them, and might just be the right fit
  • Anyone who's ever wished they had a co-founder in their corner

You don't have to figure it out alone.
