Find the right people before an idea fails for lack of them.

The problem

People who want to build something of their own rarely fail because of the idea, but because the right people are missing. They exist, you just can't find them. LinkedIn is for showing off, Discord for talking, meetups for chance. Nowhere does it say who actually has time right now, what they can do and what they expect.

What Xyntal does

You describe what you're planning. Xyntal shows you people who fit and explains every suggestion. It centres on three groups:

• Co-founders who build a company with you and share the risk.
• Project partner who build one specific piece with you: the app, the design, the first sales. Time-boxed, paid or for equity.
• People who are further along, who can save you in one conversation what they had to learn the hard way.

Clear terms from the start

Every project on Xyntal states whether it is about co-founding for equity, paid work or an unpaid side project with agreed hours per week. The terms come first, not last, before anyone invests time.

For companies

Start-ups, agencies and mid-sized companies create a project with open roles, state what they pay and how much time it takes, and see who fits: as a freelancer, as a partner or for their own team. The work then continues in the same workspace instead of being spread across five tools.

You pay per workspace, not per head: people you invite don't need their own subscription. Data processing agreements, single sign-on or a dedicated data region are arranged individually. More on the page For companies.

The app

Xyntal is an app for Mac and Windows. It holds your profile, the suggestions, your conversations and a shared workspace for every project. To see what it looks like, try the demo with sample data.

Current status

Xyntal is in beta. Profiles, members, community and messages work; suggestions with reasons and projects with open roles run in the app. Shared workspaces are in development. Feedback from the beta feeds directly into the next steps.

Access

Access to the beta is through a short application with three questions: what are you building, who are you looking for, how much time do you have. That way the people on Xyntal from the start are the ones who really plan to build something. Every application is reviewed and answered by email. Xyntal is free during the beta.
