Looking for growth hacker for X prediction tracker

Hey everyone, I'm Luke (heylookluke on X), a full-stack dev based in St. Louis, Missouri. Looking for a marketing/growth hacker partner for a new project that's already live.

Prophet Tracker (http://prophettracker.com) is a bot and db that keeps track of public predictions on X. Think bold claims on politics, stocks, crypto, sports, media, etc. It's fully operational and I want to focus on tech stuff, so I would like to find a growth hacker to partner with and see if we can drive revenue to it.

There are multiple revenue models for something like this, but it all depends on if people are interested in using it and tracking predictions of others.

What I'd bring: The product, tech, and operations. I'd handle development, updates, and core user support.
Your role: Drive user acquisition, partnerships (e.g., with influencers, podcasts, or trading apps), and monetization strategies. Think content marketing, SEO, paid ads, or outreach to prediction-heavy niches like finance and politics.
Split: Open to 60/40 revenue share (me/you) or similar – flexible based on your involvement and results.

If this sounds like a fit, DM me on X (heylookluke) or reply here. Happy to hop on a call!

    Interesting concept with strong data-network effects potential—before scaling acquisition, validate demand by targeting niche communities (fin-X, political analysts, sports bettors) and proving engagement/retention on tracked prediction accuracy.
    A growth partner should focus on credibility loops (leaderboards, influencer case studies, API/data widgets) and monetization via premium analytics or B2B sentiment datasets, not just traffic volume.

      Thanks a lot for the tips, Harry.

        You’re very welcome—glad the tips helped!

    This is exactly the kind of situation I keep running into.

    When someone says “I’ll get back to you in a few days”,
    the hardest part isn’t waiting — it’s not knowing what they actually mean.

    Do you usually follow up, or do you treat that as a soft no?

      Sorry but I dont follow. Please reword the reply.

        Got it — let me rephrase.

        When someone says “I’ll get back to you in a few days” in a potential collaboration context, do you treat that as neutral, or do you already interpret it as a soft no unless something concrete follows?

        I’m trying to understand how founders read these signals in partner conversations.

          When searching for a partner with the shotgun approach of posting in forums like this, you can never take any reply too seriously.

          If someone says they'll get back to me in a few days, I assume it won't happen. But that's just the nature of this medium of finding a stranger on the internet that is a good fit to work with.

    The 60/40 revenue split for Prophet Tracker seems like a good idea, especially since you want to focus on tech.

    I spent 8 months working on a SaaS and ended up with no paying customers. So now I check demand first before building anything.

    • Validate demand with a small niche first, like finance or crypto prediction groups.
    • Use credibility loops like leaderboards or influencer shoutouts to boost engagement.
    • Monetize early with premium analytics or B2B data before scaling user acquisition.

    How are you currently tracking user engagement or retention on the predictions?

    I like how you already have some monetization directions in mind but are honest that it depends on whether people actually use it. That builder mindset usually makes it easier for a growth person to experiment with them.

    hey @heylookluke - i've been building/buying/selling online businesses for the past 12+ years. i just came across an article about leveraging prediction markets and then saw your post, lets chat. my email is [email protected].

    Hi, i focus on early-stage products and believe this type of prediction tracker could work really well outside the US, especially in Brazil, where X/Twitter usage is huge and people are highly engaged with predictions around sports, politics and crypto.

    I’d love to explore a partnership to:

    • validate the product in Brazil

    • adapt positioning for the local market

    • help with early distribution and user acquisition

    If it makes sense, I’m happy to share how I’d approach the first launch steps.

      Hey Nico. Will reach out to learn more.

    Interesting concept. Quick question on the ops side — how are you handling access or feature limits if/when you add paid plans, or is that still open?

    1. 1

      Hello, I have general ideas about all of the monetization methods. Im looking for someone to help build on these ideas and lead implementation.
