- Verified Founder Story
"I found my technical co-founder on Kradoz in less than a week. We had both swiped right on the goal 'Build a FinTech MVP' and our backgrounds matched perfectly. It bypassed months of cold events."

A Co-Founder Matching App Built for Startup Founders

Commitment Alignment

Boost Pitch Notes
Send a 250-character pitch note with your invitation outlining your startup concept, market opportunity, or prototype progress.

What to Filter For in a Co-Founder Matching App
Most founder introductions fail on the things nobody asks about in the first conversation. Not the idea, and rarely the skill set — but how many hours a week each person can actually commit, whether one of them needs a salary in month three, and what split they had in mind before they met you.
Kradoz puts those three on the profile itself. Technical stack is stated rather than inferred from a job title, so a backend engineer who has never shipped mobile is not matched to a mobile-first idea. Commitment level distinguishes nights-and-weekends from full-time-from-day-one. Equity expectation is a range, set before either side invests a call in the conversation.
Why Double Opt-In Matters in a Co-Founder Matching App
Cold outreach to potential co-founders has the same problem as cold recruiting: the people most worth talking to are the ones already buried in requests. Kradoz uses double opt-in matching, so a conversation only opens when both founders have swiped. Nobody fields a pitch they did not ask for, and you never spend a week wondering whether silence means no.
Every profile is verified through LinkedIn, so the company history and role you are matching against are checkable up front. The How it Works page covers the full matching sequence, the feature list goes deeper on filters and Boost Notes, and pricing confirms that matching and verification are free.
