WHAT'S INSIDE
HANDS-ON LEARNING
+ GIVE-FIRST COMMUNITY +
WORLD-CLASS NETWORK
Immerse yourself in a Fellowship of ambitious yet radically generous founders who have your back while you take your shots and build your dream projects. Overcome your fears and build in public like a pro.
WHY JOIN?
Building in public alone is extremely challenging.You are constantly second-guessing your content, feeling like you’re not doing it right,
upset with the lack of quick results, and not building any momentum.Ask me. I felt this pain personally in 2018 when I first started out and it sucked.Here's the better way.Imagine if there was a fantastic community where you feel like you belong,
where you could learn and apply mindsets, strategies and tactics of building in public. Where you dwell less,
act more and gradually transform into being prolific, confident, supported, inspired and happy.This is what BIPF's vision is to be: to arm you with tactical knowledge, peer-to-peer accountability
and the rare experience of feeling like you're supported by like-minded, ambitious and kind founders
who have your back all through the ups and downs.Here, it doesn't matter if you are in Atlanta, Berlin or in New Delhi
as long as you are open. There's plenty of engineered serendipity to help you find your tribe.Go from feeling isolated to inspired daily.That’s what BIPF is for.
"The Build in Public Fellowship has been a game-changer. I’ve always hesitated to share my work publicly, however, BIPF provided me with all the tools and environment to break me out of my shell and embark on the build in public journey with confidence. When I started BIPF, I had <5 tweets. After, I have over 1000 tweets and launched my first idea publicly! If you’re ready to start building in public, BIPF is the place to do it."
FIRST-TIME FOUNDER
MAYA ARAVAPALLI
"Joining BIPF was literally one of the best decisions of my life. I not only got started on my Build in Public journey and gained a following within a month, but the community that KP has built is exceptional. Everyone is willing to help you, and as a first-time founder - it is so important to have likeminded individuals around you. Couldn't recommend BIPF more!"

"I finally was able to crush my inner critic and publicly announce my commitment to post 30 days in a row on Linkedin leveraging all the insights and inspiration I got from the fellowship. The Build in Public fellowship gave me the community to take the baby steps of building in semi-public with them before making the bigger leap to other platforms. Super grateful for that."
WHAT OUR FELLOWS SAY
RESULTS YOU CAN EXPECT
BECOME A MAGNET FOR THE OUTCOMES YOU DESIRE
The BIPF journey is about shifting your mindset to "find your joy in the journey" so you can achieve outstanding outcomes organically.The culture of "just shipping it" is embedded deep in our community and has helped many Fellows break out of their shell and rise up to their fullest potential.Outcomes achieved by BIPF Fellows include: shipping multiple MVPs, getting first paid customers for digital products, building a beloved personal brand, getting featured on Product Hunt and many more.
WHO IS AN IDEAL FIT?
Ambitious current and future founders, creators, investors and tech professionals.Ideally, we invite Fellows who already resonate with the power of building in public and are now looking to accelerate your journey by leveraging a give-first and empowering group of other high-achievers around you.We attract a wide array of Fellows across the globe but they tend to have the following unique traits:✅ Want to learn by doing
✅ Radically kind and empowering
✅ Curious and coachable
✅ Willing to play the long gameHere's a link to our first cohort Fellows (BIPF1).
Note: Contrary to popular belief, building in public doesn’t mean extreme transparency all the time risking your customers and business. It is a broad philosophy of sharing, has many flavors and you can create the one that works for you.
HOW IT WORKS
LESS LECTURES, MORE INTERACTIVE AND LIVE WORKSHOPS
The 5-week curriculum is filled with actionable tactics, real-life examples and weekly challenges that jolt you into action.Take a peep at the curriculum here.
MASTERMINDS AND ACCOUNTABILITY BUDDIES
Masterminds are tight-knit groups (led by KP) of 6-8 people who opt-in to a deeper experience of meeting weekly, sharing both the highs and lows of the journey with authenticity and vulnerability.You'll also have a Fellow (accountability buddy) assigned to you to check in on your progress so you can be consistent together.“Surround yourself with people who have the habits you want to have yourself. You’ll rise together.” - James Clear

ABOUT THE FOUNDER
hi, i'm kp 👋
I’m KP and I love helping founders and building communities to serve them.4 years ago, I was a no body in the tech / startup world. I had 414 followers on Twitter and a dead-end corporate job in Atlanta. But as I got deeper into the no-code movement online, I fell in love with building in public which became the theme of my career ever since.Now because of that I have been able to accomplish the following inflection points within the last few years:✅ Got hired to lead multiple paid communities and educational programs for founders at On Deck and Day One with over $1.5m in revenue across 5 cohorts and 500+ paid Fellows (customers)✅ Built a Twitter audience of 43,300+ and a world-class network of investors, VCs, founders, creators and more✅ Recently built a SaaS platform called "LeaderBird" in public and grew it to 22 paid users✅ Built a profitable newsletter with over 7000 subscribers from top startups✅ Created a podcast with 53 episodes (and counting) with top tier guests like Gary Vee, Alexis Ohanian, Sahil Lavingia etc.✅ Shipped over 15 side-projects like Cuppa, LetterDrop, Nocode Hub, Do Things That Don't Scale and many more. (Got acquired 2x)✅ Helped over 75 startups launch on Product Hunt with several landing the top #1 spot (winning 2021's Best Community Member Award from Product Hunt)Tbh, my whole career has been built in public (see my full bio here) and I intend to do so for the next few decades.Finally, feel free to check out the below deep dive interview of me being featured on the "Indie Hackers" podcast. This episode captures my career arc and my "build in public" philosophy quite clearly:
