FAQ

Questions we get asked all the time

CoFounder Dekho is built for anyone serious about starting a company in India whether you have a fully-formed idea, a rough concept, or just a strong skill set and the drive to build something. Founders, engineers, designers, business folk, and domain experts all use the platform to find the right person to build with.
Under two minutes. You fill in your skills, what you're looking for, your idea stage (if you have one), and a short bio. That's enough for you to start appearing in searches and for the matching system to start working for you.
We compare over 50 data points skills, domain interest, work style, commitment level, equity expectations, location preference, and more. We surface people who complement you, not clones. You can browse freely and also receive curated suggestions based on your profile.
That's completely fine many great companies start with a strong team, not a finished idea. You can mark your profile as open to ideas and connect with founders who already have traction. The Explore tab also lets you browse active startup ideas and reach out directly.
Everything unlimited profile browsing, unlimited connection requests, direct messaging, idea posting, access to the AI idea validator and roadmap tool, and a verified profile badge. There are no tiers, no feature locks, and no surprise charges. Less than ₹42 a month for a full year of access.
Yes. The platform includes a growing network of angel investors, seed-stage VCs, and experienced mentors. You can filter by what you're looking for co-founder, investor, advisor, or mentor and send connection requests the same way you would for any profile.
The idea validator takes your startup concept and gives you a structured breakdown market size, key risks, competitive landscape, and a suggested go-to-market path. It also generates a roadmap so you know what to focus on first. Think of it as a quick sanity check before you spend months building.
