Hi, I'm in Eastern Time Zone USA and I'm looking for someone interested in helping me build a cross-platform mobile and web app for keeping track of car maintenance tasks. The mobile app is currently in a closed alpha release for Android and I'm hoping to move it to a public beta and get an iOS alpha out soon. I would greatly appreciate someone with experience in developing profitable projects or simply another developer to collaborate with. I'm currently developing the app in Flutter, you can view my progress and some degree of planning in the project's github repo here: https://github.com/autodo-app/autodo I would prefer someone in a similar time zone to me, but that's not a hard requirement. You can reach me at: contact [at] autodo.app!

I'm a chemist with a background in computational design and optimization. Familiar with that machine learning stuff.

I follow many fields & technologies, am into all kinds of things, and intend to pursue these thingies more and more. I'm a bit on the idea person -spectrum, but have the skill to get stuff done.

Not sure what to expect, but if you or anyone else is interested in chatting up, you can email me at mun_gangsta_email@protonmail.com

The_Founder 1604 days ago [-]
I am looking for a co-founder for a project I've been working on for about three years but am just getting around to monetizing.

Audiobook publishing.

I know, between Audible and Podcast there is no niche for a new audiobook company.

Here is why you're wrong. "Audio" is taking off like a rocket right now. Everyone has access to every audiobook ever made in their pocket, but distribution and cost stand in the way.

OverDrive is great but lacks availability. Popular books are on 2-3 month wait lists.

Audible is great but most people don't want an Audiobook subscription.

Most people want want ONE audiobook, right NOW, that they are going to LOVE.

My company is playing to that customer.

(I have completed steps 1-3)

Step 1. A database of the top ~1,000 audiobooks. Step 2. A dead simple site that allows user ranked and curated lists by genre. Step 3. Allow users to modify sources to add for each book. Like their own Amazon affiliate link, OverDrive, YouTube, Magnet or Direct Download link. Each entry can be voted and commented on. Step 4. Purchase rights to and produce audiobooks, using the platform to leverage the product line.

Please e-mail for more info, thanks!

Why can't someone just buy directly from Audible / Amazon with a one-time purchase instead of a subscription? For example, Obama's book is available on Amazon in audiobook format for $7.99. https://www.amazon.com/Dreams-My-Father-Story-Inheritance/dp...

I think You'll need a subscription to Audible to play it.
asdfasgasdgasdg 1603 days ago [-]
That is not correct. You can play audible books w/o a subscription.

Hi,

I'm looking for a co-founder. I started Slips.io as a way for gamers to make bets on Twitch/live streams using cryptocurrency. We came up with the idea in Jan 18 although we started working on the product in July. We had a full product by the end of the year and got funding in Jan 19. Betting is a hard market to break into and sadly my co-founder left in April. He handled design although I'm no slouch in that department either. I'm a programmer by trade but I'll do anything that needs to be done; copy writing, pitching, selling etc.

We've pivoted to an blockchain powered esports league although I have an idea of how to make the betting concept work as well.

My plans is to build out both products, launch, show traction and then return to the investors I've been building relationships with this year to get some seed funding.

I'm looking for someone who is interested in gaming and/or cryptocurrencies and either has specific skills in an area (business/tech/design/sales etc) or a generalist. Whatever your specific skils, I need you to have an immense work ethic.

If you are interested, my email is my profile. I've provided some links below for you to get a bit information about Slips. You can check out both https://slips.io and https://slips.gg to look at the two products.

This is the deck we used to raise funds in Nov 18: https://www.dropbox.com/s/928dgofikjif4xy/deck.pdf?dl=0

Here is the deck in April 19 when the need for a pivot became clear: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Nl9WJ4rMeCn-hzVV7cla...

This is how the betting product can still make a ton of money without being a betting product: http://bit.ly/2LK6fsa

This is big picture overview of what the esports league is about: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1gnrKTfcfZs20-2RAAat3_2W-iv...
