Built around one question: who has already solved this?

GoBarter brings startups together with a hand-picked room of mentors, experienced founders and industry experts. Startups apply, the team reviews every application, and selected founders work with usually five experts chosen for their challenges in a focused 90-minute online session that ends with a concrete business plan.

Why it exists

Curated, not crowdsourced.

We are business developers who kept asking the same question in group chats: who has already solved this? The best answer was usually a conversation with someone who had been there. The hard part was finding the right people, at the moment it mattered.

GoBarter does the finding. Startups apply, our team reviews every application, and for the ones that fit we choose the mentors, experienced founders and industry experts who match what the startup needs right now. Then we bring them together for 90 focused minutes, and the founder leaves with a concrete business plan.

Nobody scrolls through profiles hoping they picked well. You bring your challenges and your goals. We bring a room of masterminds to the table.

What GoBarter offers

One company, three ways in.

For startups

The 90-Minute Business Plan

Apply and get selected. We hand-pick usually five mentors, founders and industry experts for your challenges, you work with them online for 90 focused minutes, and you leave with a concrete business plan.

How it works
Between peers

The peer exchange

Something else entirely. Members trade one-to-one advice with each other and pay with credits they earn by advising a peer.

How the exchange works
By application

The Round Table

A private table of five vetted founders and operators at a similar stage and a trained moderator. The same people at every meeting.

The founders

The people behind GoBarter.

Both founders take sessions, both sit at tables, and both read every application.

Running a business stops being a lonely journey. Got a midnight idea? Hop on a coffee-break call with someone who has already been there. No cold outreach, no expensive consultants. People helping people, one call at a time.

Something else entirely

The peer exchange.

Separately, GoBarter members trade one-to-one advice with each other in a peer exchange. You earn a credit for every session you give a peer and spend it on a session with a peer who has solved what you are stuck on. One credit is one consultation session.

Earn by giving

Every session you give a peer earns one credit, whatever the topic. A pricing session is worth exactly as much as a legal one.

Held until you both confirm

Booking holds the credit. It moves only when you both say the session happened, and comes back if it did not.

Protected tiers

You can book members at your tier and below. Experienced members stay reachable without being flooded, and they can always reach down to help.

Peers, not pitches

The exchange is for expertise, not sales. Pitching, lead generation and upselling are grounds for suspension.

New members start with a welcome credit. Read the full community rules
