Có Found Ireland

Helping potential co-founders find their match.

2026

Có Found Ireland explores a simple question: what if finding the right person to build a business with could be more intuitive? The concept brings a familiar matching experience to the world of entrepreneurship, helping people discover potential collaborators through shared interests, complementary skills and ambitions.

Project Overview

Explore a more accessible way for aspiring founders to connect, discover complementary strengths and begin conversations about building something together.

An early-stage digital platform concept designed to help people find potential business co-founders in Ireland.

The concept combines structured onboarding, founder profiles and a swipe-style discovery experience to explore how entrepreneurial partnerships might begin.

Approach

Team refining user journeys

Make the first step towards finding a co-founder feel less intimidating and more intuitive.

The experience centres on what each person hopes to build, the skills they bring and the kind of collaborator they are looking for.

Process

Translate the founder-matching concept into a functional digital prototype.

An initial prototype was developed with a four-step onboarding journey, profile discovery, matching and chat functionality.

Simple, approachable and people-centred. The experience should encourage meaningful connections rather than reduce potential partnerships to superficial compatibility.

The current outcome is an exploratory digital prototype demonstrating the proposed founder-matching journey.

The prototype demonstrates onboarding, swipe-style discovery, matching and chat interactions. It is a concept for further evaluation, not a commercially launched matching service.
