The operating system for the startup ecosystem.
Startups Building Startups (SBS) is a verified, B2B-only network where founders, investors, and builders find each other, surface real problems worth solving, and ship together.
We combine AI-assisted matchmaking, identity & corporate verification, and a public "Fix My Itch" repository so the right introduction, the right hire, and the right deal happen faster — and with trust built in by default.
What makes SBS different
A real, verified network
Founders, employees, individuals, and investors — all in one graph, with identity and corporate verification.
Fix My Itch
Anyone can post a real problem. Startups can solve it — or claim they're already working on it.
Investor signals
Watchlists, milestones, and funding signals — built for how investors actually work.
AI-powered discovery
Describe what you need in plain English. We surface the people and startups that fit.
Trust & safety
Verification protocols, moderation, and clear conduct rules keep the ecosystem high-signal.
Escrow-ready collaboration
Optional integrations with third-party escrow providers for safer B2B transactions.
Our mission
Most early-stage progress is blocked by missing intros, unsolved operational problems, and noisy networks. SBS exists to remove those blockers — by building one verified place where the people, the problems, and the capital that move startups forward all live together.
