coopcollective

You know the problem. Let's build the business.

Most good business ideas never leave someone's notes app. The person who understands the problem can't build it, and the people who can build it have never met the customer.

I've been building full time with AI agents for two years. Building stopped being the hard part. Finding the right problem, and the person who knows it best, didn't.

So that's what this is. You bring the problem and the people who have it. I bring the agents and the build. First version in weeks, first revenue in months, and every step goes up in public.

Pitch me a problemRead the long version

From first call to first customer

  1. Talk

    Week 0

    Tell me the problem, who has it, and what they put up with today. A few calls in, we'll both know if it's worth a build.

  2. Build

    Weeks 1 to 6

    I build. You show it to customers every week and bring back what they said. We ship something people can sign up for, not a deck.

  3. Earn

    Month 2 onward

    Pricing, distribution, support, the last 5%. Getting paid takes longer than getting built, so we plan for it from day one.

The whole way, the numbers go up on the blog and on X. Good weeks and bad ones.

What we each bring

You
You've lived the problem, at work or in your life
You
You know where the people who have it hang out
You
You'll talk to them every week, even when it's awkward
Me
Two years of shipping full time with AI agents
Me
Product, infrastructure, payments and launch
Me
The loops that keep it running while we sleep

No technical background, team or funding needed. Just the problem and some patience.

If you're heads down on something great that nobody's found yet, that's the whole problem.

Stealth used to make sense. Now you can build something real in two weeks, so hiding it any longer is just hiding. Every collaboration gets documented from the first conversation: revenue, pivots, the weeks nothing works. It's hard to fool yourself when the numbers are public.

    Why I'm starting coopcollective, how it works, and who I want to build with.

Got a problem you can't stop thinking about?

DM me three things: the problem, who has it, and why you're the one to solve it. A few sentences is plenty.
