Common questions
FAQ- What is Built in Baltics?
- Built in Baltics is the digital town square for tech builders across Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. It's for founders, engineers, designers, and operators shipping products from the region. The Baltics are small enough that you can actually know everyone in tech, but the scene has historically been fragmented across three countries with no shared place to gather. Built in Baltics fixes that. You can showcase what you're building, find co-founders and collaborators, ask technical questions, follow what the region is shipping in a live activity feed, post or find jobs, and discover upcoming events from Tallinn to Vilnius. It's community-run and backed by a small group of sponsors, with no editorial influence. If you're building from or for the Baltics, this is where the rest of the community can find you.
- How do I find collaborators in the Baltics?
- Two paths, depending on where you're starting. If you're scanning for people, use the People directory. You can browse every builder on the platform filtered by role (founder, engineer, designer, operator), country, and whether they're open to collaboration. Profiles include bios, project history, and direct ways to connect. If you're posting a need, use Collaborate. Write a clear, specific call ("looking for a technical co-founder for a fintech idea in Riga", "designer needed to ship an MVP in two weeks") and tag the roles, skills, and country you're targeting. Each post tracks roles needed versus filled, so others can see what's still open. The successful matches we see almost always start from posts with a clear ask and a working prototype or pitch, not "hey anyone want to build something cool?"
- What tech events are happening in Estonia, Latvia, or Lithuania?
- The Radar page is your calendar of upcoming Baltic tech events, including conferences, hackathons, meetups, workshops, and online sessions. Filter by country, event type, or language to find what's relevant. Major fixtures like HIPTHER Baltics in Tallinn, RIGA COMM, and Login Conference in Vilnius appear alongside smaller community meetups, demo days, and AI builder gatherings. Each listing shows the date, venue, organizer, language, and a link to register or learn more. Past events drop off automatically so you only see what's actually coming up. Anyone in the community can submit an event. That's useful if you organize a meetup and want reach beyond your local circle. For a chronological feed of newly posted events (and everything else happening on the platform), the Pulse page is the live-stream version of the same content.
- Can I showcase my project on Built in Baltics?
- Yes. No curation gate, no application form. Create an account, then submit your project from the dashboard with a title, description, screenshots or logo, tags, sector (SaaS, fintech, AI, climate, dev tools, etc.), country, and external links like GitHub, website, or App Store. Mark it as open-source if it is, flag whether you're looking for collaborators or hiring, and post project updates as you ship new versions. Once submitted, your project appears in the public Showcase browseable by anyone, surfaces in the Pulse activity feed when new, and becomes eligible for Top Picks This Week based on community stars. Visitors can star projects, leave comments, and follow updates. Project owners can also post jobs tied to their project. Archived projects stay accessible at their URL but drop out of public listings.
