Communities that discuss what r/founder discusses.
Welcome to /r/startups, the place to discuss startup problems and solutions. Startups are companies that are designed to grow and scale rapidly. Be sure to read and follow all of our rules--we have specific places for common content and requests.
Open community to ask questions. We've built a network of real seasoned founders (check out the AMA section) that's actively lurking and answering questions.
Our community brings together individuals driven by a shared commitment to problem-solving, professional networking, and collaborative innovation, all with the goal of making a positive impact. We welcome a diverse range of pursuits, from side projects and small businesses to venture-backed startups and solo ventures. However, this is a space for genuine connection and exchange of ideas, not self-promotion. Please refrain from promoting personal blogs, consulting services, books, MLMs, opinions.
Please pay attention to Rule #1, we now require flair! Please provide as much context as you can -- your background (skills/experience) if you're looking to join a project, or as much context on what you're building and what you need if you're looking for a co-founder. You will be banned if your post is not looking for a co-founder, or not offering yourself as a co-founder. (service offerings, rants etc), help us keep the signal above the noise ratio! Idea stage?

r/founder — frequently asked
How many members does r/founder have?
r/founder has 62,184 members as of our most recent crawl on Aug 24. Prowlo re-checks tracked communities on a rolling schedule, so this figure moves rather than sitting frozen at whatever it was when a scraper last ran.
Is r/founder growing?
We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/founder yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Aug 24; the chart fills in as history accumulates.
How active is r/founder?
We don't have a reliable posting-rate sample for r/founder yet. Subscriber count alone is a poor guide to whether a community is active, so treat this one as unverified until the next sample lands.
Can I promote my product in r/founder?
We don't have a promo-tolerance read for r/founder yet. Default to the safe approach: read the sidebar rules, contribute in threads where you gain nothing, and mention your product only when it is the honest answer to someone's question.
How do I monitor r/founder for mentions?
Hit Watch on this page. Prowlo starts crawling r/founder into your Dataset — every new post indexed and embedded, searchable semantically, queryable by your AI agent over MCP, and able to trigger keyword alerts in Slack. Prowlo is read-only; it never posts on your behalf.
Can my AI agent read r/founder's stats?
Yes. Everything on this page is one MCP tool call away: catalog_get_subreddit returns r/founder's members, growth, promo tolerance and similar communities as typed JSON — free, no credits. Connect your agent to api.prowlo.com/mcp and it can vet the community and start watching it in the same conversation.
