Our idea is good but there's no money, investor?
I have experience in this area I should say: the topic of looking for a capital partner depends on a few factors. Gather the data first don't make emotional decisions.

Another perspective: maybe the core issue with looking for a capital partner is something else. Think about it...

Technically speaking: there are two main factors in the decision of looking for a capital partner. Cost-benefit and risk management. Make decisions based on data.

Let me speak from the other side; I'm on the supplier side. If you're offering equity instead of salary, also state what you're offering in return.
Give trial work but pay for it; free trials don't bind anyone.

Quick summary for newcomers: Give trial work but pay for it; free trials don't bind anyone.

I have a question. The real issue isn't the number, but what it's based on.
Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late. If you post the result here, it will help others too.
Thanks for writing this, that's the right way. When you try to change everything at once, nothing settles.
If it's your first time, start small; scaling comes later. This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.
Thanks, that was the answer I was looking for. When we decide without measuring, we always end up in the same place.
That's all, sorry if I went on too long.

My perspective changed after experiencing that. Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate.

I agree with this. Partnership isn't a decision to make without working together first.
When listing, put proof that the product actually works at the very top. btw just leaving this note, it might be useful.
