It's been magical to watch Mike find Huddle within what he already loved doing: connecting entrepreneurs with incredible talent to help realize their visions, tell compelling stories, and launch quality products. What a great, thoughtful, and intentional team.
@richiebonilla thanks for the kind words! Grateful for the thought partnership and to be on this journey together!
thanks @anastasia_alt! it's been truly wonderful to have you as a founder member and collaborator at Huddle
Really love this quote @michaelsaloio.
"There’s currently no home for the modern-day worker and we’re creating it, providing a steady flow of interesting projects, member resources, back-office tools, business support, and most importantly, a community of people who work just like you. Huddle projects almost always require more than one freelancer, and teamwork is a core virtue of ours. Who said company culture, accountability, and peer support had to come with a W-2?"
How are you helping the freelancers team up?
Thanks @matthew_mottola! We present freelancers opportunities based on skills needed for projects that come through our platform. Freelancers opt into Teams based on culture, project interest, and team fit. We handle all the back-office stuff (contracts, invoices, etc.) and provide an account and project management layer, so creators can focus on creating. Plus we're building a real community where you can jam with your peers even when you're not on a project.
Love that Huddle is changing how startup founders find and work with the best talent!
@jamesvclements spot on James! Thanks for the shout, excited to collaborate on something.
A+ team launches a tremendous product that meets an obvious market need. Congrats Mike!
Hi Mike - I absolutely love this project! I'd love to chat with you more about this! What is you current fundraising strategy? Is this project bootstrapped or do you have plans for venture capital?
I'm analyst at Action Ventures where we provide Pre-seed funding ($25K-$250K) for startups/founders that we want to work with. We also offer a network of high-performance advisors to help founders overcome daily challenges that they might face. Our portfolio consists of Oxygen, Grabango, ROOM, Mojo, and more! Let's chat!
🤙 Hey everyone! I’m Mike, the founder at Huddle. I’m excited to introduce what we’ve been building over the past six months. Some quick background first:
I’ve spent a ton of time talking with early-stage founders about the problems they face. While talent is by no means the only thing, it’s consistently at the top of the list alongside funding. But funding for what? The answer, again, is talent.
Even the most seasoned co-founders can’t do everything alone. In the early days, it’s not necessary, nor is it really feasible, that everyone on the squad is full-time. But where do you go to find high-quality, fractional talent?
Enter Huddle.
Huddle connects founders with pop-up product and design teams. No more scrolling freelancer platforms, interviewing expensive agencies, or time-consuming email swaps with friends and VC platforms. Our creator community makes it easy to work with top startup players from companies like Spotify, Uber, Airbnb, and more.
How Huddle works for founders:
1️⃣ Tell us what you need to build - pitch decks, logos and brands, prototypes, websites, marketing plans, product development, and more...
2️⃣ We connect you with a Team hand-selected from our builder community, many of whom have been founders themselves, with the skills needed for your project
3️⃣ Pay for up to 25% of your project fees in sweat equity, aligning incentives and preserving your most valuable resource 💰
4️⃣ Start building and ship! Our Teams work in managed 2-week sprints, and we can even help you recruit full-time teammates when you’re ready
Our freelance community loves Huddle because they get...
✅ A steady flow of interesting projects
✅ A true community of entrepreneurs and creators to jam and collaborate with
✅ Member resources, back-office tools, and support to be their own boss
✅ The ability to get equity in high-quality startups by doing what they love… building
We’ve been in private beta since September and we’ve been humbled by the energy surrounding our creator and founder community.
Now we’re open for biz! We're here to give entrepreneurs of all styles a home, making it easier for founders and builders to connect and make things together.
