Seeking teams or partners

Hey guys I am a freelance designer and low code dev. I am testing the waters to see what's out there.

I notice most projects on here lack marketability because of shortsighted strategy and design as an afterthought. This brings your product down to a utility as opposed to being like the best products which are useful, habitual lifestyle products.

If you are a founder or team looking for a designer with strong problem thinking skills and execution work, feel free to reach out. I can help you with your strategy, branding, design, marketing and creative. Or just give critiques on improving your website or product.

What I'm working on:
Productized service, Framer themes, newsletter, directory and e-commerce brands. I also plan on vibe coding some apps, but that takes me out of my workflow a bit.

    Looking for an AI Developer / Tech Partner

    I’m building an AI Sales Assistant for small and medium businesses in Africa.

    👉 The idea:
    Businesses can record their sales through WhatsApp/Telegram chat, and the AI will:
    • Track sales automatically 📊
    • Generate daily/weekly reports 📈
    • Predict trends & highlight top customers 🤖

    The goal is to launch an MVP quickly, test with 20 businesses, and scale to 200+ paying clients within 12 months.

    I’m looking for:
    • Backend/AI Developer (Python/Node.js, OpenAI API, LangChain, WhatsApp/Telegram Bot).
    • Passionate about startups and excited to build fast.

    💡 What I’m offering:
    • Equity as a co-founder (20–30%) with vesting, OR
    • Paid role for building the MVP.

    If this sounds exciting, DM me or comment “I’m in”.
    Let’s build the future of business tools in Africa 🌍.

      Thanks. I'm only looking for opportunities in America to avoid international discrepancies.

    👋 Hi all, I’m building AfriXPay, a cross-border payments and subscription platform for Africa → Global commerce.

    Problem: African creators/freelancers struggle to receive international payments and FX conversions.
    Solution: AfriXPay makes it simple to accept local NGN → convert seamlessly → settle merchants in USD (or other currencies).

    ✅ I already have a vision deck, system flow diagrams, and MVP outline.
    💡 Now I’m seeking technical cofounder(s) (backend, payments integration, or full-stack) excited about fintech and emerging markets.
    This is equity-based (for now) with a big vision: Africa-to-World payments infrastructure.

    If this sounds interesting, let’s connect here on Indie Hackers!

    Hey, it's a great skillset to have. A founder who deeply understands product, design, and strategy is a rare find. You're essentially the 'visionary' or 'Product Architect' that every technical team is looking for.

    It's also interesting how the landscape is shifting for founders with your exact profile. The traditional path was to find a technical co-founder to translate your vision into code. But a new path is emerging where the architect can build the entire thing themselves, without needing to become a full-time coder.

    The next step beyond the current low-code/no-code tools is the idea of orchestrating a crew of AI agents.

    Imagine you stay entirely within your zone of genius—strategy, branding, and UX/UI. You create the complete, pixel-perfect blueprint for the product. Then, instead of handing it off to a human developer or wrestling with the limitations of a low-code platform, you feed that blueprint to a system of specialized AI agents.

    • One agent takes your Figma designs and writes the clean, responsive front-end code.
    • Another takes your business logic and builds the necessary backend and database.
    • A third agent handles the deployment and server management.

    In this model, you're not the builder; you're the architect and the conductor of an AI development team. It allows a design-led founder to have the leverage of an entire dev team without needing to find that perfect co-founder. It lets you focus on your genius—designing the product—while an intelligent system handles the execution.

    It's a powerful shift that puts the product visionary in the driver's seat like never before. Just a thought to consider as you're testing the waters. Good luck with the search!

      Thanks that's a cool idea. I may try that soon.

      1. 1

        Awesome, glad the perspective was helpful! It's a powerful new way to think about leverage for design-led founders.

        Excited to see what you build. Cheers!
