The problem it solves

Finding the right people to partner with, invest in, or sell to on X means scrolling through hundreds of profiles and guessing who is worth a message. You end up spending hours hunting for founders instead of reaching out to them.

Who it fits

A founder, investor, or agency looking to connect with independent app builders.

How it works

  1. The system scans relevant accounts and hashtags for app founders
  2. It researches each founder's app, following, and revenue signals
  3. Contact details are gathered where publicly available
  4. Everything is compiled into a spreadsheet
What you get

Founder profiles ready for outreach

You get a spreadsheet of indie app founders, their apps, and contact details, ready for you to start conversations with.

What you get

A spreadsheet of founder profiles with their apps, follower counts, and available contact details.

What you need

An X account for research and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
