A merit-based platform where founders build in public, earn real traction, and get discovered by investors — no vanity metrics, just what you shipped.

Hey everyone! 👋 I'm Usman, founder of Snikus. Every other platform ranks you by followers or connections. We flipped that. Snikus is where founders, investors, and community members meet on one simple idea: real work should be what gets you noticed, not who you know. 🚀 Founders — build a permanent home for your startup: team, roadmap, updates, open roles, all ranked by a fully transparent, points-based system. 💼 Investors — discover real traction directly, verified startups only, no cold DMs required. 🌍 Community — follow founder journeys as they happen, learn, and grow alongside them. What inspired this? Watching talented founders get overlooked simply because they didn't have the "right" network. Snikus makes merit visible, no matter where you're building from. We're still early, so the first 100 people to join get a Founding Member badge, permanent, numbered, and never reissued once those spots are gone. Would love for you to check it out and tell us what you think: https://snikus.com 🙌

I recently joined Snikus and was impressed by how much there is to do beyond simply creating a profile. I fully completed my profile, added my project, and joined the Founder Room.

I really like the fast communication and feedback from other founders, as well as the idea of giving feedback to other products in return. It makes the community feel genuinely involved rather than just being another platform where people create profiles and disappear.

I also like the updates and activity features that encourage founders to keep their profiles active and share their progress.

Overall, Snikus feels like a genuinely engaged founder community, and I've really enjoyed being part of it so far.

There are still some minor bugs from time to time, which is understandable for a recently launched platform. What I really appreciate, though, is how quickly you can report an issue directly to the team and the founder, and how fast they respond. In many cases, bugs are fixed within just a few hours.
