Technical Co-Founder

Upstyld is an AI-powered personal styling app that starts with your existing wardrobe before suggesting anything new. The concept is validated — 5/5 WOZ participants engaged, immediate purchase conversion, real user feedback driving the roadmap. The prototype is live at upstyld.app. What needs to be built is the automated version of what already works manually.
We are also building Connecta Platform — B2B infrastructure that closes the loop between AI recommendation and verified, shoppable product. Built once, licensed across verticals.
The technical problem to solve:

Automated product retrieval pipeline — from styled recommendation to verified affiliate link
Real-time stock confirmation and image fetching at scale
User preference learning model fed by save/swap/like/reject signals
iOS app build (React Native preferred, open to discussion)
Connecta API layer for B2B vertical expansion

What you get:
Co-founder equity (40–50%, 4-year vest, 1-year cliff)
$1M pre-seed raise in progress
A non-technical co-founder with commercial law background, validated product instinct, and everything on the non-technical side already done properly
Path to Blackbird Series A

This is a co-founder role, not a contractor arrangement. Reach out if you want to own the build, not execute a brief.
