Partnering Tier 1 Founders with the SaaS they love

SaaS companies, reward the founders who love you.

Earn on Every Insight

Record a two-minute video, jump on a micro-interview, or answer a lightning survey. Each action credits your Stripe balance in real time, turning product opinions into a recurring revenue stream—no affiliate hacks or lifetime-deal gimmicks.

Verified Founder Network

Only Tier-1 VC–backed founders are admitted. Vendors tap 5 000 + operators who already run the tools they're improving—so feedback is informed, actionable, and trusted by procurement teams.

AI-Matched Feedback Loops

Our LLM reads vendor research briefs and instantly routes them to founders with matching stack, stage, and spend. Result: higher response rates for vendors, less noise for founders, and product-market fit accelerates.

Our Community

Join a network of successful founders and innovators.

Frequently Asked Questions

Discover quick and comprehensive answers to common questions about our platform, services, and features.

What exactly is TrustedApp now?
A closed marketplace where Tier-1, VC-backed founders sell razor-sharp product feedback to SaaS teams that need proof before they ship or spend. No coupon codes, no affiliate fluff—just paid insights.
How do founders get paid?
Accept a brief → record a 2-min review, short survey, or 15-min call → vendor clicks Approve → Stripe drops cash into your account instantly. Payouts are automatic and recurring for any rev-share deals you spark.
What do SaaS companies receive?
Verified founder opinions you can quote in board decks: usability videos, survey data, live discovery calls, and testimonial clips—all matched to your ICP by our LLM so the noise stays out of your roadmap.
Who can join as a founder?
Operators who've raised from top-tier VCs and actively use the tools they're reviewing. We verify funding, role, and tech stack; if you're not hands-on with the product category, you're out.
How is TrustedApp different from AppSumo or FounderPass?
Those sites sell discounted licenses. We sell high-signal feedback loops. Vendors pay you for truth bombs; you don't pay them for lifetime deals. Think user-research turbocharged, not bargain-bin SaaS.
Is there a cost to join?
Founders: zero. Vendors: choose a monthly plan or buy credits à la carte—cancel anytime. TrustedApp only takes a 10% cut after a vendor approves the work, so everyone's incentives stay aligned.
