We envision a world where sharing comes naturally by establishing the most secure community for renting and lending tech-equipment. We have started out as the marketplace for secure sharing of items and have grown to become the largest community in Germany. See it as the airbnb for (tech-)equipment. What differentiates our platform is not only a unique design-for-trust with 100 % ID-verified borrowers, ai-based fraud detection and up to 15.000 € insured transactions. But furthermore a Go-To-Market strategy around universities to connect fellow students to share exclusively with institution members. Currently, we are supported by the beVisioneers fellowship and the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung to pilot exclusive communities for corporate companies. For this reason, we have launched a B2B-product called 2-share to enable secure sharing among employees. The target audience consists of firms that want to promote a sustainable and trustworthy sharing culture.

They're the unwavering standards that anchor us in our pursuit of excellence. By embracing these principles, we empower each team member to act with confidence and purpose. They serve as our North Star, offering direction, alignment, and a constant reminder of who we are and what we stand for.<ul><li>Growth-mindset. Be proactive and accept change. Especially in the early days, we require leaders, not followers, taking responsibility on their topics, setting and keeping the bar high.</li><li>Self-responsible, reliable &amp; careful. We execute with care and diligence to remove “code smell”. Keep files clean, check your spelling, apply our code guidelines and document your work. Be responsible beyond your areas of responsibility.</li><li>React to other peoples messages in group chats at a minimum once daily so everyone knows we are on the same page especially the person that put in the work. Alignment and appreciation is key.</li><li>Authenticity. Towards yourself and others. Internally and externally.</li><li>Minimize communication overhead, make up your mind before meetings and conversation and if sending over information on any channel give a one sentence note on the rationale behind.</li><li>Low Hierarchy. Everybody participates and takes responsibility in tasks that are not necessarily in the field of expertise. Participation and communication is key in all fields.</li><li>Present a problem always with a solution draft. If hitting a roadblock, take time to clearly state the problem and figure out some possible solution before interacting with the team for help. This is a thing of respect and ownership, others are not meant to fix the problem one is responsible for.</li><li>Keep up a healthy effective communication. Everyone is responsible to pause and cut interaction immediately that runs into the wrong direction - we have conscious phases of concentrated work. If meetings do not add value to your work or you can not add value to the conversation, you are allowed and encouraged to leave.</li><li>Be on time, always, it's about respect for other people and the team's output. In any case there is any unforeseen delay, we give a written notice as early as we know to be late.</li><li>Allow mistakes. It’s human to have weaknesses. Everyone has them, be always kind to yourself, however do not accept them to affect the team's standard to drop. Use tools to support you or discuss with the team on how someone with a strength in this field can support you. Follow an open-minded feedback-culture.</li></ul>🌟 Meet the Stellar Minds Behind Our Startup! 🌟At the heart of our dynamic startup are four visionaries, Kevin, Johann, Jan and Max, whose passion and expertise set the tone for our journey.
