Very interesting concept for the winner-takes-all economy! You can find the Techcrunch article here: https://techcrunch.com/2020/06/0....
I especially liked this section of the article mentioned above: “Warren Buffett believes in himself. And yet, he has a portfolio of companies that he’s invested in. Venture firms believe in their ability to pick winners. And yet, you’ll never find one that has a single investment as their portfolio strategy,” Olson said. “Your agent is proud of you. And yet, he has a stable of clients, and he’ll make money from the one who makes the most. Why are you the only one that owns 100% of your own upside?” He said that argument and the cooperative feel of a pool helps to close deals."
I think that PandoPooling can be really interesting for all bootsrappers & indie devs out there and that this kind of kind of business collective is getting more and more popular. What do you think about this company and its concept?

@robinkunz I really like this idea in theory. Something in my brain triggers a reaction that buying into a new type of arrangement like this is itself risky, when it doesn't appear to be. I guess the most important element of this is the vetting and pool formation process. Creating a better understanding of this process is what would move someone like me to go further.

@robinkunz @product_at_producthunt We've built a marketplace to help you make an informed pooling decision, complete with recommendations and an easy pathway to vet / get comfortable with the pool that's right for you. And the pool is built on top of a legal contract that ensures the arrangement itself isn't risky. Happy to answer more questions (I'm the CEO of Pando) at charlie@pandopooling.com!
Love the idea, just curious about how you think it’ll be useful for bootstrappers and indie devs - could you elaborate?

@garyfung Gary, I agree. The delivery mechanism will change over time, and I think you're painting a picture of the future.
?makers can everybody apply? Or is it limited to specific markets/jobs etc.? Looks very cool!
