FounderMetrics: Curated Founder Portfolio Registry & Quarterly Review Service

A managed service where bootstrapped SaaS founders submit quarterly metrics (MRR, CAC, churn, tech stack, founding date) into a standardized portfolio profile. FounderMetrics curates, verifies spot-checks, and publishes anonymized cohort benchmarks + individual founder profiles on a searchable registry. Founders pay for quarterly profile updates, verification credibility badges, and access to a private Slack community where experienced operators (ex-YC, ex-Stripe, angel investors) review submissions and give tactical feedback.

SERVICE

25 weeks • 70% confidence

Value Proposition

Founders get a credible, persistent public profile (beats manual LinkedIn posts or HN threads that disappear). Verification badges reduce investor skepticism. Quarterly feedback from operators accelerates decision-making. Investors get a searchable registry of pre-vetted, transparent founders. No founder has to manually paste metrics into 10 platforms.

Target Audience

Bootstrapped SaaS founders with $500–$50K MRR seeking credibility signals and peer feedback; secondary: angel investors and acquirers searching for undervalued founder talent

Key Features

  • Standardized quarterly submission form (MRR, ARR, churn, CAC, runway, tech stack, hiring plans)
  • Spot-check verification (sample invoice or Stripe export review) for 'Verified' badge
  • Searchable founder registry (filter by MRR range, growth rate, industry, location)
  • And more, with full implementation detail...

Tech Stack

Typeform or Airtable (submission forms) Webflow or Framer (searchable registry frontend) Stripe API (automated revenue verification) Slack API (community management)

Original Problem

Bootstrapped founders struggle to validate and communicate their SaaS traction to potential investors and customers

Bootstrapped SaaS founders lack a simple way to publicly share their business metrics (MRR, growth, tech stack) and get feedback from experienced founder communities. They're forced to manually compile and share this data across multiple platforms, missing opportunities to build credibility, attract early customers, and connect with potential co-founders or advisors who could accelerate their growth.
