Circl Founders - Stay in each other's world. You meet founders all the time - at startup events, over coffee, through friends, and in the communities you're part of. You exchange numbers or LinkedIn profiles, say “let's stay in touch,” and then life moves on. Circl gives you a simpler, more personal way to stay connected with the founders you've met. Know what they're up to, without having to ask. Share what you're working on, what you're figuring out, or simply how life is going. Just say what's on your mind — by voice or text — and your people can see it. “Finally shipped the feature we've been working on for months.” “Talking to users all week.” “First paying customer. Still doesn't feel real.” “Hiring our first engineer.” “Taking the weekend off. The laptop can wait.” Not everything has to be a milestone. Not every update needs to be impressive. Sometimes someone realizes you're going through the same challenge. Sometimes a founder you've met has just the advice you need. Sometimes a small update gives someone a natural reason to reach out. That's the point! Circl is a private, invite-only network built for founders who want to stay connected beyond the introductions, pitches, and LinkedIn updates. A different way to stay connected: - Share your state. Let other founders know what you're up to in seconds, through voice or text. - Stay in the loop. See what founders in your network are building, experiencing, and figuring out. - Leave a note. Saw something that resonated? Send a private note. A small gesture can start a meaningful conversation. - Create Circles. Keep smaller groups of founders close and share with the people you choose. - Conversations on your terms. Choose whether you're open to chatting or would rather just receive notes. No likes. No follower counts. No pressure to perform. Just real people sharing what's happening in their lives. Why Circl exists Building something is hard enough. Staying connected with the people you meet along the way shouldn't feel like more work. Circl was built around a simple idea: the more we know about what's happening in each other's lives, the easier it becomes to show up for one another. Because sometimes the most valuable connection starts with something as simple as: “Wait, I'm going through that too.” Circl Founders. The event ends. The connection doesn't.
