Startups discover ambitious talent, hire interns, validate ideas, and build faster,all on one collaborative platform.
👋 Hey Product Hunt! I’m Akshat, builderr of CollabX.
Like many students, I kept hearing the same thing: “You need experience to get opportunities.” But the question was always… how do you get experience if no one gives you the first opportunity?
That experience loop inspired us to build CollabX.
Instead of waiting for internships or jobs, students can work on real startup challenges, collaborate with founders, build meaningful projects, showcase their work, and become part of startup communities. At the same time, startups get access to ambitious talent, fresh ideas, and a place to discover future teammates.
Our vision is simple:
🚀 Replace “Years of Experience” with “Proof of Work.”
We’ve built features like startup challenges, project collaboration, communities, networking, portfolios, and internship opportunities to help students build credibility before their first job.
This is just the beginning, and we’d genuinely love your feedback.
What was the biggest challenge you faced when trying to get your first internship, job, or startup opportunity? We’d love to hear your story and build CollabX with the community. ❤️
How does CollabX handle matching when a startup needs a specific skill like ML or frontend and the student pool is mostly generalists, do you vet portfolios first or let founders filter after posting?
The IIT Gandhinagar pedigree really shows in how clean and focused the platform feels. Love that students get actual pilot experience instead of fetching coffee.
