CoffeeSpace is a Hinge-like app that wants to help you find your co-founder


CoffeeSpace is on a mission to help people find partners for their startup ideas online. The startup, which exhibited as part of the Startup Battlefield 200 at TechCrunch Disrupt 2024, has launched a social networking app that matches people exploring startup ideas and looking for co-founders. 

The startup’s algorithm only matches candidates who meet each other’s requirements. You can filter through potential candidates based on several different filters, including expertise, location, industry, and more. 

CoffeeSpace CEO Hazim Mohamad told TechCrunch he believes that when you look for a co-founder for your business idea, you want to go beyond a traditional résumé, which is why the app gives users a peek into others’ personalities and working styles in order to help people get an idea of whether a match would be an ideal candidate.

“We’re helping people realize their dreams of exploring their startup ideas,” Mohamed said. “We believe CoffeeSpace will change the nature of how people can find business partners, just like what Tinder did for online dating 10 years ago.”

The social network launched in March and currently has more than 7,000 users. Since its launch, CoffeeSpace has seen over 270,000 swipes on the app. 

In terms of the app’s UI, the startup has taken inspiration from Hinge. When you sign up for the platform, your CoffeeSpace profile will include a mix of public and private data. The public data comes from your LinkedIn profile, while you enter the private data yourself. 

The private data includes information about your location and what sort of co-founder you’re looking for. For example, you can note that you’re looking for someone with a product design background. 

The platform operates on a freemium model, as users can access the app and get 10 matches for free. If you want to unlock more matches, you can subscribe to the service’s premium offering, which costs $50 per month. The premium subscription also unlocks additional filters that you can use to narrow down your search even further. 

CoffeeSpace is available on iOS and Android.
