Founder Match Night #1: AI Builders Edition
Details
The first event for AI Cofounders Orlando. If you're building something in AI — agents, tooling, SaaS, automation — and want to meet people who can actually help you ship it, this is for you.
Format (2 hours):
First 20 min — Join the Zoom and introduce yourself in the chat: your name, what you're building (or want to build), and what you're looking for (cofounder, collaborator, first hire, just exploring).
Next 30 min — Lightning intros. Everyone gets 60 seconds on camera: who you are, what you're working on, what you need. No slides, no pitches. Just signal.
Next 60 min — Structured 1:1s. We rotate Zoom breakout rooms so you actually meet 6–8 people instead of getting stuck in one conversation.
Last 10 min — Open networking. Stay in the main room and follow up with the people you want to keep talking to.
Who should come:
Founders looking for a technical or growth cofounder
Engineers ready to move from side project to real company
AI/ML practitioners interested in the agent and tooling space
Designers and product people who want to work on AI-native products
What to bring: Have whatever you're building pulled up on your screen — even if it's a Figma sketch or a README. Show, don't pitch.
What this isn't: Not a lecture. Not a service-provider lead list. Not a place to recruit for your bootcamp. If that's you, please skip this one.
Hosted by Devin Rost (founder of ClawHQ, an AI agent marketplace).
