Our founding team, which included four members, surprisingly worked well together despite the general advice against having that many co-founders.

We had a surprisingly functional four-person leadership team, despite our dysfunctional interpersonal dynamics and management practices.

Many successful co-founders have strong relationships that help them persist through challenges, unlike many companies that face insurmountable disagreements.

We prioritize building a strong co-founder relationship, as it sets the foundation for our team's culture and success.

It's crucial to have a diverse mix of personality types in your team. For us, each co-founder brought a different strength: logical thinking, product vision, business operations, and culture maintenance.

Having a co-founder is crucial; it provides relational support and helps structure thoughts during challenging moments, especially in a remote work environment.

Even with a great co-founder relationship, ongoing effort is needed to maintain it and avoid potential conflicts.

We all had moments where we impressed each other, which contributed to our strong team dynamic despite occasional disappointments.

We were all friends and had worked together before, which made us confident that our co-founding team was the right fit for building something long-term.
