Foundersbase officially launched in the United States today, positioning itself as a professional alternative to swipe-based co-founder matching apps. Designed for early-stage entrepreneurs, the platform helps founders connect with co-founders, recruit talent, and engage investors through curated profiles, smart discovery, and a startup-focused job board.
A Professional Home for Founders
“Founders don’t need another swipe app. They need a place where serious builders can be found, screened, and contacted,” said Kai Lindemann, Founder of Foundersbase. The platform emphasizes alignment on vision, work ethic, and motivation—critical factors when selecting co-founders—and provides a structured environment for deeper, meaningful connections to develop organically.
Why Now: AI and the New Wave of Founders
The launch comes amid a surge of AI-driven tools democratizing entrepreneurship. More people worldwide can now pursue startup ideas, increasing demand for credible co-founder networks and early-stage support.
“There’s a new generation of founders who previously might not have taken the leap,” Lindemann explained. “When building becomes accessible to more people, the need for credible co-founder matching naturally increases.”
