- 4Both say yes
A chat opens only when both sides tap Interested.
- 5Outcome
Meeting happened. Pilot started. Facts on your profile — never star ratings.
We lost 3 pilots before we learnt to price the pilot itself. Free pilots get ignored; ₹25K pilots get a champion. Happy to share the one-page pilot agreement we use now.
The Community
Where founders actually talk
Matches are how you meet the right person. The Community is where everyone shares what they’re learning in between — and it shows up first when you open Movo.
- Updates, insights, questionsThree kinds of post, each tagged, so the feed reads like a founders’ room — not a timeline.
- Useful, not likesOne button: was this useful? The count is honest, and it feeds who Movo introduces you to.
- Seen counts, @mentions, commentsEvery post shows how many people saw it. Mention anyone, reply in threads, connect from the post.
- Guides from @movoThe official account publishes practical playbooks — first customers, pilots, raising, hiring.
Not another DM platform
Nobody reaches your inbox without your acceptance.
- MatchBoth interested → chat.
- Public GoalThey respond, you accept → chat.
- ExploreEvery request says exactly why.
- CommunityUseful · Comment · Connect. No likes, no followers.
Founder-centred. Not founder-only.
A founder asking for sales needs the actual buyer in the room. Everyone else joins with a Goal of their own.
- Founders
- the centre of the network
- Investors
- declared, relevant deal flow
- Operators
- startup roles, founder networking
- Future founders
- the idea, the person, the push
- Experts
- advisory and mentoring
- Buyers
- startups solving declared needs
Agencies and recruiters cannot cold-message anyone.
Questions founders ask us
Is there a feed?
Yes — the Community. Members post updates, insights and questions; you mark what was useful instead of liking, and every post shows who saw it. It sits next to your matches, and the official @movo account publishes practical guides there.
What is Movo?
Movo is the mutual-opportunity network for entrepreneurs. You publish one active Goal — what you want right now — and declare what you're open to. Movo introduces you to people only when both sides have a reason to meet, and a chat opens only when both tap Interested.
Is Movo free?
Yes. Movo is free to join and free for founders — no credit card, no placement fees, and Movo never takes a cut of anything you raise, sell or sign.
Who is Movo for?
Founders first — and everyone a founder needs in the room: investors, operators, future founders, domain experts and buyers. Each joins with a Goal of their own, so every introduction has two reasons to exist.
What can I ask for?
Customers and warm intros, pilot users, funding, a cofounder, a key hire, focused networking, partnerships, specific advice, a startup job, or advisory work — plus anything specific via the Other Goal.
How is Movo different from LinkedIn or X?
Those platforms reward attention — feeds, followers, engagement. Movo rewards intent: no cold DMs, no likes, no follower counts. You get value from one specific Goal even if you never post anything.
Do people need a Movo account to respond to my Goal?
No. Every Goal gets a public link you can share on WhatsApp, LinkedIn or anywhere else — people respond in about 30 seconds without signing up, and you accept the responses worth your time.
