Hello product hunters! Alejandro Cremades here. I am one of the cofounders of the holding company, Onevest. Happy to answer any comments or questions. As a side note we announced yesterday the acquisition of FounderDating (read more about it here ). FounderDating and our very own CoFoundersLab will join forces to continue building one of the largest networks for entrepreneurs online. We are now 250,000+ entrepreneurs and counting :)
Maker
we launched yesterday the new CoFoundersLab platform which we have been working on very hard for the past year. We have allocated a significant amount of resources to build the new CoFoundersLab from the ground up with our in house team of engineers. In addition to that, we launched the CoFoundersLab Learning Center to support entrepreneurs via education.
Maker
we have a new personalized dashboard for registered users, improved matchmaking algorithms, new advanced search, a more intuitive messaging system, online courses with domain experts (e.g. marketing, fundraising, team building, etc), new structure and design of profiles where users can customize them as they wish, compatibility views with other candidates, we have improved how to join local in person events, and a lot of other good stuff :)
this is a great resource for our members at Projective.co for finding CoFounders, interns, advisors. I'll definitely share this with our community!
Maker
many thanks! Members of your community are welcome!
Spill the beans Alejandro - what was the figure?? 💰💰💰
Do you have matched stories shared somewhere? I'll be glad to read them :)
Maker
Sample companies that have found cofounders or advisors on the now combined entity: -Revolv - Acquired by Google -Imperativ - Raised Series A -Refresh.io - Raised $10M, then bought by LinkedIn - (Founders are repeat entrepreneurs from google and leap frog) -Floquast - just raised series A in March - (was also in Amplify.LA) -Suiteness - Just raised (founders from Yelp, Apartment List and Capital One Labs ) -Fashion Metric - advisors, also a TechStars company Other success stories can be found here and here
You rock! Thanks for caring.

you're very welcome!
Wow, this page has drastically changed for the better. I love the new UX/UI. Well done!
Maker
thank you so much! The team and I really appreciate it.
oh so it's US only as for now? any plans to consider Europe countries?
Maker
this is not only for the US. We have presence all over the world. In fact we have ambassadors in Latin America, Europe, etc.
Fine, but "Your location"'s autocomplete field doesn't contains Ukrainian cities alike "Kyiv", "Odessa".
Maker
got it. appreciate the feedback. We will look into this to make sure we got your region covered :)

Also, to show our token of appreciation to everyone on PH, please use the coupon code PRODUCTHUNT to receive a 25% off from any purchase on CoFoundersLab or from any purchase from the CoFoundersLab Learning Center.
FYI, it is really easy to find people on LinkedIn from the profiles on CFL. Perhaps tweaking should be made to really incentivize people into becoming premium members?
Maker
thank you so much for the feedback!
Just Incredible a little disappointed in this feeling as if it's a bit leaning more toward an engineering only run company and not a designed run startup environment in the way the user experience organises and presents applicants and so on. Not being bias being I'm a ui/ux architect but know how important design in every area is important and has touch-points that reach other sectors of a company, just didn't see that as prominently reflected in the design decisions on the application. but I know this is an iterative process..I just became a premium member 5 minutes ago, best money spent in a long time!
Maker
thank you so much! Means a lot to have you as a premium member and really appreciate your comments. Without a doubt, there will be iterations implemented as we continue to listen carefully to our customers. Let me know how the experience unfolds and if I can help at any point :)
wow! This looks awesome! Any update on when the iOS app will be updated to match the new UI/UX on the web app? The iphone app seems outdated and very buggy :)
Maker
many thanks and very valid comment. As one of our next priorities we will be building from the ground up a new mobile app for iOS and Android. Stay tuned!
Hi guys, love the idea. BTW, when I was searching, I see that you should check your learning center part. There are some problems in the social media links of Tanya Prive.
Maker
thank you so much! We are looking into this as we speak.
congrats on the launch. I think the near filter doesn't show any options for any previous filters and I'm in SF :)
Maker
I am not sure of the issue that you are experiencing but happy to help. You can reach out to me directly at alejandro[at]onevest[dot]com and we will get it resolved :)
