đŸ§© The First Swipe-to-Team Dev Platform

Never Hack Alone Again.

Find Devs Who Match Your Vision.

No more ghost teammates or off-track projects.

BuddyFi helps you team up with verified devs, based on skills and commitment.  

Swipe. Match. Build. Succeed.

The Problem We Faced

As developers who've been through 50+ hackathons , we experienced these pain points firsthand. Every weekend, talented developers were failing not because of lack of skill, but because of team formation chaos.

"We watched brilliant ideas die because great developers couldn't find each other. The random team formation process was killing innovation before it even started."

Stages of Work

Our vision for the future of BuddyFi

preparation

User Onboarding

User connects their Solana wallet and lands on the app. We ask minimal but key questions to understand skills, interests, and hackathon intent.

preparation

Profile Creation

User fills out a form with skills, goals, and availability. This data is pinned to IPFS and referenced on-chain, ensuring decentralized identity.

structure & feedback loop

Sketching the Match

We map out potential matches using compatibility logic based on interests, tech stack, and activity level.

Initial Matching

Show basic swipe interface with top matches. Prioritize functionality, not style, to test early assumptions.

Live & Iterate

Platform is live and growing! Monitor activity, collect data, and prep for upcoming features like team formation, leaderboards, and mobile support.

User Validation

Collect early user feedback post-match. Adjust flow, fix edge cases, and enhance clarity in the UX.

Final Touches

Making Components

Build and polish key UI components: swipe cards, badge logic, match notifications, and profile dashboards.

Refining the Flow

Add personality - gamified badges, profile vibes, and match indicators. Begin integrating user feedback into the matching algorithm.

Built by Developers, for Developers

We've been in your shoes. Every feature in BuddyFi solves a real problem we encountered during our own hackathon journey. This isn't just theory - it's  battle-tested solutions that have helped  2,500+ developers find their perfect teammates. Â
