BetaBuilders

Build Startups. Gain Experience. Make Impact.

BetaBuilders connects volunteer developers, designers, and product thinkers with early-stage startup founders to help turn bold ideas into real MVPs.

What is BetaBuilders?

BetaBuilders is a nonprofit initiative that empowers early-stage startups by matching them with passionate volunteers who want to build, learn, and collaborate. Whether you're a founder with a dream or a dev looking for real experience — you're in the right place.

Our Mission

BetaBuilders exists to turn courageous ideas into working products while giving volunteers a place to learn, ship, and shine. We rally builders and founders around a single goal: launch something that matters.

Our Vision

We imagine a world where talent and ambition are all you need to build a startup—funding optional. Every volunteer leaves with new skills, meaningful connections, and a portfolio piece they’re proud of.
