"Share your story, build your community"
Hi I’m David, founder of Owesome. And I’m seeking a co-founder who can lead the technical side, while I focus on Product, Design, Fund raising, Marketing, and Operations.
Owesome is a peer-to-peer rental platform where neighbors not only share items instead of buying new, but also build stronger bonds and community.
The problem is clear: people often buy items they rarely use, leading to wasted money and storage.
We connects people to share items—from baby gear to leisure equipment—saving money and reducing waste.
My vision is to make renting an essential, everyday act of sharing in every city worldwide and to connect every neighbor through rental.
What matters me the most is not only technical ability, but character.
I value genuine passion for work, patience, grit and positive energy.
Above all, I seek a co-founder passionate about create real impact on this journey.
I’m willing to work with someone whom I’d gladly give half the equity, vesting over 4 years with a 1-year cliff.
I want to embark on this great journey with someone ready to devote themselves wholeheartedly to their passion.
If this resonates, let’s connect and discuss whether our values align. Feel free to reach out to me!
You can totally build this within $6K (even less than $8K if you scope it right).
Here’s what that MVP should include:
1. Landing Page / Home
• Explains what Owesome is (share instead of buy)
• Sign-up / login options
2. User Onboarding
• Create account
• Verify email or phone
3. Item Listing
• Upload item photo, description, category, rental price per day/week
• Availability calendar
4. Search & Browse
• Users can search nearby items (basic map or list view)
• Filters by category or distance
5. Booking & Chat
• Simple request → owner approves → confirmation
• In-app or WhatsApp-style messaging
6. Payments (optional MVP stage)
• For demo, can be mocked (PayPal/Stripe integration can come later)
7. Profile & Dashboard
• User’s listed items, active rentals, and history
8. Admin Panel
• Manage listings, users, reports
Love the vision, David connecting neighbors through sharing is such a strong mission. I’m with Zaaric, a product studio that helps early founders like you get from idea → MVP fast, without giving up equity.
We usually build complete MVPs (fully owned by you code, design, everything) for under $8K, so you can validate and attract a technical co-founder or investor with something real in hand.
If that sounds helpful, happy to chat and share how we could help you get Owesome launched quickly.
Grateful for this community! What features would you love in a peer-to-peer rental platform? Share your ideas, and let’s shape the future of sharing!
I'm excited to connect with potential co-founders! I'm generally available for calls next week to discuss our shared vision. Please reach out via email or book a slot directly on my Calendly to start the conversation!
