Hey! I'm co-founder of Boundless, thanks for the mention :) Happy to chat more if you need - [email protected].

Congratulations on getting Manara up and running!


Thanks so much! Claire McHugh of Axonista was the first person who mentioned you to us. You've got a strong reputation! We'll reach out :)


Ah, good stuff!


Would diffidently reach out :)


Co-founder of Boundless here, thanks @hailpixel for the shout out.

AMA! Here's a link to my soundcloud, we're hiring, thanks for coming to my TEDx talk.

We are hiring though.


Any jobs page? Couldn't find it on the site linked above.

We do have more advisors than team. Cohort was founded by me, and I brought three of the best people I know on. I don't know if you've ever been a single founder, but it's really tough to start something, just by yourself.

I've had co-founders in the past, and it's very different doing it yourself. Before the team was properly formed, I asked some friends for help. Some of it was product related, some of it was business and fundraising related. And some was just moral support.

I don't think there's a hard and fast rule to the ratio of advisors to team. Every startup is different, every product is different and every team is different.

As to our value prop and brand strategy, I admit, there's a lot that's not obvious from what's essentially a holding page. -- we're still pre launch, and in private beta, which I mentioned in opening paragraphs of the post.

Regarding .is, as I said above, there's a specific reason that was chosen, more to do with the product than with marketing.

If you'd like to see for yourself what we're up to, I'd be happy to give you a demo. Drop me a mail on [email protected] and I can set something up.


Me again! Cohort as a product, is a social graph first. We expose it through multiple interfaces, mobile being the one we're focused on now.

Cohort.is is our marketing website. We chose the .is TLD for a specific reason.


Founder here. Thanks for your comments. No, we do not have 100M users. I think if we did, you'd have heard about us before now :)

What we have is a social graph that a lot of R&D has gone into, using public data - which was outlined in the post.

As I'm sure you know, a social graph is more than just a list of names pulled from Quora and LinkedIn (neither of which are sources for us, btw).


Is this collection of information on non-users even legal? It is not okay here in Sweden (PUL) and as I understand it the same laws apply in the whole of EU. Is this a US service only?


Another "Artoo" http://artoo.io/


What do they say? What do they do? What do other people say about them?

That will usually weed out most of the procrastinators, wannabes, "difficult" people etc...

A bit of interpersonal chemistry going, some complimentary skills (you're looking for compatibility, after all), and some level of emotional investment on the problem being solved, wouldn't hurt either.


What are ye like?
