1. Co-Founder Dilemma

I currently don’t have a co-founder.

• Co-Founders… required? When is it and when is it not?
• What is the best way to find a co-founder? (Is there a tinder for co-founder matching? 🤔)
  • Context:
    • I know YC’s startup school has co-founder matching, but I’ve had very little luck.
• What do you look for in a co-founder?
  • Context:
    • I’m looking for someone that believes in the idea as much as I do. “Build Fast” mindset. Doesn’t immediately assume anything based on my military service (I’ve gotten a lot of that lately).
    • I’m a technical founder
    • I’m a former US Army Special Operations Combat Medic, so I’m very mission driven/oriented.
    • I affiliate with e/acc, but that stems from my background as a Mass Casualty Coordinator.
      • Be as effective as possible.
      • Build Fast, because people need it.
      • Nothing is ever perfect, so it’s best to build imperfectly than not at all.
      • You can’t help/save everyone, but you can work at the pace as if you’re trying to.

2. Needing Advisors

• Context:
  • “You don’t know what you don’t know”… but maybe someone that has walked the path before knows.
  • Someone to lean on to handle “1 Way Door” questions.
• How do you find advisors?
• How do you compensate advisors?

3. Is The Problem That ARGO is building for big enough?

• Context:
  • Udemy + Gitbook + Certifications = ARGO
  • Only the biggest players can afford having native eLearning Platforms. Docs don’t have clear pathways of learning how to build with new infra, protocols, etc. Long form technical eLearning videos have grown on youtube by 446% since 2022.
  • Modular video education built into documentation with on-chain certification.
  • Technical video education has grown in demand yoy (year-over-year) since Covid. We’ll need to be catering to an entire new wave of engineers that have spent their last 3 years learning in remote classrooms or by async eLearning.
