Looking for a marketing cofounder for a SEO/AEO agent platform

Hey everyone, I’m building an AI agent for SEO and AI search optimization — a platform that helps brands grow their online presence by automating the heavy lifting behind visibility on search and AI channels.

The core tech is live and interest is growing, but what I really need now is a co-founder with marketing expertise to help take this to the next stage.

You might be a fit if:
• You’ve run growth or marketing for SaaS before
• You enjoy digging into acquisition and engagement
• You like strategy AND hands-on execution
• You’re excited about AI and how it’s changing discovery

This is an equity co-founder position — not a freelance gig — and you’ll be shaping the go-to-market and community strategy.

Interested? Shoot me a message with a quick intro and your experience.

    Very timely problem to solve. AI search is changing the whole visibility game.

    What kind of brands are you targeting first — startups or established companies?

    For marketing cofounder roles, clarity on what’s already validated usually matters more than the idea itself.

    A few things that help the right partners assess fit:

    • What problem does the agent solve better than existing SEO/AEO tools?
    • Current stage: idea, prototype, early users, or revenue?
    • What part of marketing is most critical right now — distribution, positioning, or conversion?

    Sharing this context tends to attract partners who align with both the vision and the execution phase.

    Hi Shehroze, where can we chat?

    Hi. I like your idea and would like to discuss the possibility of our partnership.

    I've worked with over 350 startups over ten years. I've taught idea management, market analysis, and demand testing at university.

    I'd be happy to discuss a partnership with you.

    Hi Shehroze,

    Interesting problem space. Quick thought from experience:

    At this stage, the biggest risk is not awareness.
    It is positioning and distribution clarity.

    AI-SEO tools fail when they try to sell “capability” instead of one clear outcome for one clear buyer. Before scaling marketing, I would pressure-test three things:

    Which buyer feels the pain most today

    One core job your agent does better than any alternative

    How early users should explain your product in one sentence

    That usually determines whether growth compounds or stalls.

    If useful, tell me:
    • Who is showing the strongest interest so far
    • How they currently describe the product
    • What action you want users to take first

    Happy to share a direction to test before locking a GTM plan.

    Looking for early teams to test a productivity tool we built internally
    We built an internal tool to solve a problem we kept hitting as a team — too many tools, too much context switching, and work getting lost between chat, docs, and tasks.

    It started as an internal fix, but it’s reached a point where we want outside eyes before we lock the roadmap.
    We’re not selling anything and we’re not launching yet — just looking for a few teams or builders who want to test it and give honest feedback.
    If you’re working with a small team and feel the same pain, I’d love to connect.

    Hey, sounds interesting. Would love to connect and know mroe about this.

    This is a really compelling product, and it’s clear you’re building something with real potential. I’m part of Genesis Launchpad, where we work closely with early-stage founders on marketing execution, everything from refining messaging and positioning, to launching campaigns, tracking performance, and iterating based on results.

    Even while you’re looking for a marketing co-founder, there’s a lot you can learn from testing early strategies, validating your messaging, and generating initial traction. We’ve seen how running focused marketing campaigns early can not only bring in users, but also make it much easier to attract the right co-founder or investor later, because there’s proof the product resonates with a real audience.

    If it’s useful, I’d be happy to connect and share some practical ideas on building momentum and validating your go-to-market approach without slowing down development. No pressure, just a conversation to see if there’s a fit and maybe help move things forward faster.

    Great initiative, Shehroze! The blend of AI and SEO is a powerful direction, and I can see huge potential in automating search visibility. As someone with experience in AI-driven digital marketing and SaaS growth strategies, I’d be excited to discuss how we could accelerate the go-to-market strategy and build sustainable growth for the platform. I'll reach out with my experience and a potential roadmap to scale!

    This is a strong space to be in. One thing I’ve seen with SEO/AEO tools is that founders often build great tech, but early traction stalls because they’re not plugged into the right discovery channels yet

    I work with AI and SaaS builders using Reddit as an early GTM layer validating positioning, finding the subreddits where people already discuss search, AI visibility, and tooling, and turning those conversations into early users and partners without spam

    If you’re open, I’d be happy to share how Reddit could support your launch, community building, and early demand alongside SEO/AEO

    DMs open if you want to explore fit or exchange ideas
