We keep it very simple for coaches: tell us where you’ve built before (product, engineering, design, growth) and what kinds of founders you love to support, and we’ll match you with a small number of pre‑seed teams that fit. Each team has committed to a 4‑week Cofo Sprint together; you help them turn ambition into a focused plan, stay accountable, and reflect on what they’ve learned.

Why would I coach inside Cofo Sprint instead of just advising founders on my own?

Cofo Sprint puts you in the room with teams that have already committed to building together for 4 weeks, so your time lands on founders who are actually doing the work, not just talking about it.

You’re stepping into a structured environment where your experience directly shapes how they execute, learn, and decide whether to go all‑in together.

What’s in it for me beyond “feeling helpful”?

Every sprint you run is a live experiment in founder potential that can turn into real upside: future advisory roles, early core‑team opportunities, and a visible track record of teams who shipped, raised, and grew with you in their corner.

You’re not just giving feedback, you’re building a portfolio of stories where your name quietly shows up behind the wins.

What kind of people become coaches here?

The people who coach in Cofo Sprint are the operators founders quote later: PMs, tech leads, designers, and growth folks who have already done zero‑to‑one and want to multiply their impact.

If you’ve shipped products in the chaos of a startup and still love that energy, you’ll feel at home.

How intense is the time commitment really?

Founders meet you just twice a week for about 30 minutes; the rest happens async in Slack and Trello, so you can dip in when it fits your day.

Most of the time, teams need your assurance that they’re on the right path and occasional course‑corrections based on your experience — founders move faster thanks to conversations you can only have after living this journey yourself.

What if I’m not sure I’m “experienced enough” yet?

If you’ve shipped real things with real users, made mistakes, and learned what you’d do differently next time, you’re already ahead of most first‑time founders.

Cofo Sprint gives you a place to turn those scar tissue stories into shortcuts for others, while sharpening your own leadership and pattern‑recognition along the way.

Do I get to choose which founders I work with?

Yes. Before each sprint we’ll send you short profiles of potential teams — who the founders are (experience, location, background) and what they’re exploring, and you decide which one you want to support. You only step in when a team and an idea genuinely excite you, so every sprint you coach feels like a “hell yes,” not an obligation.

Everyone talks about backing great founders. Coaches are the ones who help them become great in the first place.
