Technical Co-Founder Program
You bring the vision, the market, and the customer relationships. We bring the architecture, the build, and the follow-through, as an embedded technical co-founder, not a vendor you have to manage.
Three signs you're the kind of company this was built for.
Not every company needs a co-founder — some genuinely just need a vendor. But if two of these sound like you, this program was built with you in mind.
You're vision-led, not engineering-led
You know your market and your customer cold — you just don't have the technical team to build the product yet.
You've been burned by agencies before
You've tried project-based dev shops and hit the same wall: they ship a deliverable, then disappear until the next invoice.
You want a partner, not a project
You're not looking for a one-off build. You want someone who still cares about the roadmap two years from now.
How the partnership works: embedded, not outsourced.
The program runs on two things: full technical ownership, and a cadence that keeps both teams honest.
This is a relationship built to outlast the first roadmap.
Most agencies measure success by the invoice. We measure it by whether you'd still pick up the phone in year eight.
Ask the founder who's been doing this with us since 2011.
Engagement started off slow, as many successful relationships do. But over the past 8 years it has really felt like Convene has become an extension of our team.
Not an agency. Not a hire. Something in between.
Two familiar paths, and a third one built for founders who need both speed and commitment.
