I have experience in this area, I should say: the topic of looking for a technical partner depends on a few factors. Gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.

But what's the real risk? Will the business close if this choice is wrong? I'm saying this so you're very careful.

another perspective: maybe the core issue with looking for a technical partner is something else.. then think about it...

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

Quick summary for newcomers: If IP assignment to the company isn't written from the start, it can't be collected later.

If you don't write this down from the start it leads to arguments later. Correct me if I'm wrong.

The discussion got scattered let me summarize. When listing, put proof that the product actually works at the very top.

Let me summarize the topic since several different answers were given. If you get three different answers on a topic, the question was asked wrong.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Let me summarize what's been said so far. The real issue isn't the number, but what it's based on.

If I were you, I'd go this route.

It's rare to find an explanation this clear.

We got stuck at the same point for a while... A partnership without a payment schedule locks up at the first split.

If I were you I'd go this route.

Thanks for writing this, that's the right way. The harder it is to reverse a decision, the slower you should make it.

Correct. Are you looking for a partner or a co-founder? They are two different things.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

Let me share my experience. Partnership isn't a decision to make without working together first.

That's all, sorry if I went on too long.
