StartuPage is a startup ecosystem platform and community that connects founders, investors, and talent through verified profiles, a public leaderboard, and an opportunity marketplace — all at startupa.ge.
What is StartuPage?
StartuPage is an all-in-one startup platform where founders build and showcase their startups, investors discover verified deal flow, and talent finds roles at growing companies. Founded in 2024, it takes founder and startup data (including revenue from connected payment processors like Stripe and Lemon Squeezy) and produces verified profiles, a ranked leaderboard sorted by monthly recurring revenue, and a live marketplace of opportunities. The platform runs as a web app accessible from any browser.
Key Features
- Verified revenue & traction — Connect Stripe, Lemon Squeezy, Polar, Dodo Payments, or RevenueCat to display live MRR and growth percentages on your profile.
- Public founder leaderboard — Monthly ranking of top founders by revenue and growth, with the top 10 shown and a call to join (“You” placeholder at #10).
- Opportunity marketplace — Four live categories: Hiring, Fundraising, Co‑founder matching, and Sale (startup acquisitions), each with dedicated listings.
- Startup sub‑pages — Separate profile space for each startup, distinct from a personal profile (unlike LinkedIn or Linktree).
- Smart matching — Algorithm that connects users based on goals (co‑founder skills, investor thesis, talent skills).
- Quick setup — Create a profile with a custom startupa.ge/yourname link in “90 seconds” — no endless forms.
- Direct messaging — Communicate with other ecosystem members without intermediaries.
- Revenue verification integrations — Supports Stripe, Lemon Squeezy, Polar, Dodo Payments, and RevenueCat for automatic revenue syncing.
Who is it for?
- Founders — Build and showcase a startup with verified revenue, raise funding, find co‑founders, and attract talent. Example: Sarah Chen (TechFlow AI) with $42K MRR, raising Series A.
- Investors — Discover startups with transparent revenue data, browse acquisition targets, and connect directly with founders. Example: Mark Anderson (angel investor, $25K–$100K checks).
- Talent — Find full-time or co‑founder roles at verified startups, get discovered by hiring founders, and highlight skills. Example: Alex Rivera (Full‑Stack Developer) open to co‑founder roles, 8 startups interested.
