Seeking Technical Cofounder for B2B SaaS Project
I am working on a B2B, SaaS, AI-driven system focused on semi-automating and orchestrating much of the clinical trials management process within the biopharma industry. I’ve experienced and lived this problem personally and in recruiting, leading and managing teams within biotech companies. I haven’t yet seen a tool available like the prototype/MVP that I’m creating on Replit that would be a copilot, companion tool to clinical trial managers. With agentic AI advances, I believe this system could be game-changing for a historically conservative and highly regulated industry. I know the market is there as there are currently over 200K active clinical trials in the US alone.
I am looking for a technical co-founder and partner to help build this project. Someone experienced (10-15 years) building who has been integrating AI within the last few years into their work and who wants to grow a company together. I have other ideas within the same niche market beyond this idea, so I’m looking to partner with someone for the long haul.
If you’re interested in hearing more, please reach out. I’m looking to build this initial project within a few months.
Hi Sandy - your post really stood out to me.
I’m a full-stack developer working across Node.js, React, PostgreSQL, and AWS, and I’ve been actively building products with a strong focus on integrating AI into real-world use cases.
While I may not come from a 10–15 year traditional background, I’ve been deeply hands-on-designing, building, and iterating on products end-to-end, and thinking in terms of systems, not just features.
What caught my attention is your domain insight.Paired with the right technical execution, I agree this could be something genuinely impactful.
I’m not just looking to “join a project”- I’m looking for the right partner to build something long-term.
Would be great to connect and learn more about what you’ve prototyped so far, and see if there’s alignment on how we could build this together.
Nice
Sandy — this lines up well with what I do.
My background is 13+ years in backend/platform engineering, and a lot of my work has been taking early or prototype-stage systems and turning them into production-ready products that can scale.
I’m comfortable owning the technical side end to end — system design, data modeling, integrations, and making sure the foundation is solid before layering on more.
Happy to connect if you’re still looking.
Hi Sandy, this sounds like a really exciting and impactful project! I’m a Flutter developer experienced in building complex, cross-platform applications and integrating AI-powered features. While I’m not a 10–15 year veteran, I specialize in rapidly turning prototypes/MVPs into production-ready apps. If you’re ever open to collaboration on the mobile/app side of this system, I’d love to connect.
Interesting project! I'm a technical founder myself building a tool in the TikTok space.
Quick questions:
From my experience building: start simple, talk to users daily, don't over-engineer.
Good luck! 🚀
Exciting project 👏
Finding the right technical cofounder can be a big step.
In the meantime, I help founders test their products and identify usability issues, bugs, and improvement opportunities early.
Happy to run a quick review and share actionable feedback if you’re open could help strengthen the product while you build.
I would be glad to explore the opportunity to work with you. We can connect via email at [email protected]
Additionally, could you please share your LinkedIn profile?
I look forward to discussing this further.
Hi Sandy, I've been building and leading technical products for 12+ years. Not just writing code, but making the architectural and strategic decisions that determine whether they scale. I'm also a med school dropout, so I understand clinical workflows from the inside. Your project hits the exact intersection I've been wanting to work in. Would love to hear more about where the prototype is at and have a longer conversation.
Hi Sandy.
How can I reach you through LinkedIn or some other way?
Hi Sandy L, this sounds like a very impactful idea!!
At Code Colonies, we partner with founders as a co-founder-level tech ally through our The Startup Engine Model. Our team has strong experience in AI integration, full-stack SaaS development, and scalable cloud architecture, helping build products from scratch with equity + minimal charges instead of a traditional agency model.
Happy to connect and explore if this could be a good fit.
Interesting space. AI copilots for regulated workflows like clinical trials could be very impactful. I’ve been building AI-based products recently and enjoy working on early-stage systems. Would be interested in learning more about what you’re building.
I have mvp video ready for it would like to check it out with few working functions with demo data ?
This feels like a meaningful space to build in. Especially where usability can directly influence adoption in a complex industry. I come from B2B product design and early-stage platform work, so I’d be curious to hear more about how you’re approaching the product side as it develops.
Hey Sandy, I'm a 3x technical founder looking for new projects, this sounds interesting!
Let's connect?
Hi,
This is a fascinating space. Clinical trials management is one of those industries where workflows are extremely complex, manual, and documentation-heavy, yet the tools used are often outdated because of regulatory barriers.
The idea of an AI copilot for clinical trial managers makes a lot of sense—especially now with agentic AI that can orchestrate workflows rather than just assist with small tasks. If designed correctly, it could help with things like protocol tracking, site coordination, document generation, compliance checks, and operational oversight.
I’m a software engineer with ~9 years of experience building products and SaaS systems. Recently I’ve been focusing heavily on AI-powered tools and automation, exploring how AI can act as a companion system embedded inside real workflows rather than just a chat interface.
A few things that stood out to me in your post:
• You’ve personally experienced the pain inside biotech, which is a huge advantage for building the right product.
• Clinical trials are a large but underserved operational market where efficiency improvements can have massive impact.
• The timing is interesting because agentic AI is starting to make workflow orchestration possible.
I’d be very interested in learning more about what you’re building on Replit and the specific problems you’re tackling first.
If there’s strong alignment, I’d be open to exploring this as a long-term technical partnership rather than just a short project.
Would love to hear more about:
• The core workflows you're trying to automate first
• Who the initial users are (trial managers, CRO teams, etc.)
• What your current MVP already does
Looking forward to connecting.

The hardest part of building a tool for other builders is that your target customer is perfectly positioned to just build their own version instead of buying.
The way to compete with DIY is to be faster AND more polished AND more maintained than what they'd build themselves. If your tool does a specific thing really well and keeps up with API changes/site changes, the build-vs-buy math usually favors buying.
Do you see a lot of "I could build this myself" in your sales conversations?

Interesting space.
In regulated environments like biotech the hardest problem usually isn’t building the tool.
It’s fitting the tool into the operational structure that already exists.
Clinical trials already run on dense workflows: protocol design, regulatory approvals, site coordination, monitoring, reporting. Many stakeholders, many handoffs.
If a system doesn’t align with that structure, adoption becomes extremely slow no matter how strong the technology is.
So the real question is usually not “can we build this”.
It’s:
which exact step of the clinical trial workflow becomes meaningfully simpler because this system exists.
Hi Sandy,
Your post really caught my attention — the problem you're solving in clinical trials management is both genuinely important and underserved, and your firsthand experience in biotech gives you a rare edge most founders don't have.
I'm an AI Generalist and Sales Head at D-Tech Digital, an India-based startup specializing in AI-powered solutions and scalable application development. We've been building in the AI/SaaS space and have hands-on experience integrating agentic AI into real-world workflows — which sounds very aligned with what you're prototyping on Replit.
I'd love to explore whether there's a fit to collaborate — whether that's as a technical partner, a development team supporting your build, or even just an initial conversation about your architecture and roadmap. We're genuinely excited by the biopharma/clinical trials niche and the compliance-aware, regulated-industry challenges that come with it.
Would you be open to a quick call this week or next?
Hi Sandy
This sounds interesting but frankly from the post itself it's bit hard to understand what exactly the system does on day-to-day basis.
I’ve been building B2B SaaS products with founders for several years and would be intrested to know what is the exact thing that you are trying to build and what exact problem you are trying to solve.
Happy to chat and discuss further about it.
Hi Sandy, I'm a software developer with over 20 years expereience, I'm always looking for things to build and your expertise in the domain sounds like it could make an intersting combo, would love to see the protoype and hear more about it.
B2B SaaS is a wide space — curious what the core workflow looks like that you're trying to fix. The "within a few months" timeline is interesting too, that's actually doable for a solid first version if the scope is tight from day one.
What's the problem you're solving, and do you have a sense of who your first 10 users would be? That usually tells a lot about where to start building.
Hi Sandy,
I came across a post that you’re looking for a technical co-founder, so I thought I’d reach out.
I’m part of the team at CodeVentures, a Chicago-based group that partners with founders to help build and launch products. We often work with early-stage startups as a technical partner—helping with MVP development, product architecture, and scaling as things gain traction.
If you’re still exploring options for technical support, I’d be happy to learn more about what you’re building and see how we could help.
