Losing track of things, not reaching out to your colleagues, creating scary designs for social media — thanks to innovative tools, the days are gone. These make your everyday life easier, even as a founder. We are introducing you to a variety of the little helpers today.
Project Planning

surveys
- Typeform: There is a better way to ask.
Many of these tools and software offer you a free trial period or freemium version (with fewer features). It is best to find out about the conditions in advance. If you're part of our StartPort program, you can redeem the special deals and credits we've negotiated with the providers. Just write to us. 🙂
