The "post what you're working on and let the right people come to you" model is interesting because it flips the usual co-founder search dynamic, most platforms make you actively hunt through profiles, which tends to favor people who are good at networking rather than people who are good at building. Curious how you handle the trust/vetting side once two people actually connect, is there any structure for validating that someone's claimed skills or past work are real before they commit time to a project together? That's usually where co-founder matching falls apart in practice, the initial connection is easy, but figuring out if someone will actually follow through is the hard part.

Krooko's card-based approach is a nice change from the usual co-founder matching. Instead of a résumé-style profile you get a feed of what people are actually building, which is a much better signal for whether someone is worth teaming up with. The free-forever positioning matters too, because most early-stage founders won't pay for a tool like this before they have anything real. The two things I'd want before relying on it: some signal of activity and commitment — response time or how far along each project actually is — so it doesn't fill up with dead profiles, and a way to filter by the kind of partner you need (technical, business, content) instead of scrolling the whole feed. Good starting point, worth watching how the community fills in.
Finding the right co-founder is genuinely one of the hardest parts of building a startup — most people try to do it through warm intros or random Slack groups, which is hit or miss. Krooko's approach of making it structured and searchable makes a lot of sense. Would love to see filters for stage (idea vs. revenue) and preferred working style, since those tend to be the real make-or-break factors beyond just complementary skills.
