Looking for non technical founders

I am working on an ambitious robotics project. That will help clean up the world we live in. I do not know if I will succeed, I'm giving myself 2 weeks to finish the MVP though.

I'm looking to partner up with some folks that can help build some hype in anticipation that the robot can be built. There is a 50/50 chance of this not working, so I look at this as a great learning opportunity and portfolio building project.

I'd be looking for a few things to be done, as I dont have time until its built
- basic website with copy and images created, with aim of signups
- social media marketing, twitter, ig
- maybe some blog posts to help with SEO, I can help with these as well
- if interested in sales I can mentor you here. I used to do enterprise sales
- pitch deck creation / help with creating a business model

My expectations would be that we work hard for the next 2 weeks and then revaluate if this thing has legs (or wheels). So while risky would be a great opportunity/portfolio piece to see if you can build hype. Which it should be since you can pull on heart strings and has a good social mission of cleaning up our littered world.

      mostly well. I got the arm and vision part working, but the self driving was very tough. I had not worked on that part ever before so I was not familiar. I've now got that working as well and am now trying to combine the two and create a video to share this week.

    This is an amazing initiative! Let's connect, will be happy to help & share experience from this field, happen to be involved in a startup collaboration with local municipality (as a facilitator) that tried a similar solution for a specific problem area within the city. Also can help with design [email protected]

    2 weeks is a short time! Why this 2 weeks deadline?

    1. 1

      Good question, Im going with a short deadline for a few reasons.

      1. Hardware / robots is hard. My thesis is that what I want to build has all been technically solved now it just needs someone to glue all the pieces together. So if I cant do that quickly I wont be much different from other more skilled in the space.
      2. Thats the amount of time I can devote 110% to after that I'll have to make a hard decision and prob go part time unless good progress has been made.

    Hi partEngineer, you replied my post https://www.indiehackers.com/Emailisalive/post/a622b0e325?utm_campaign=forum-notification&utm_medium=email&utm_source=indie-hackers-emails

    I would be honoured to work with you on this project. But I would be having exams over the next four weeks. Can we work out something around the time requirements of the project? Thanks.
