Why Most Founders
Get Stuck
Great founders with big ideas often hit the same wall:
  • Can't find a technical cofounder
  • Agencies are expensive, slow, and don't understand startups
  • Freelancers ghost or deliver half-baked code
  • Investors won't fund a PowerPoint
 
Result: months wasted, momentum lost.
