pitch and grind emhusiasts

Like many entrepreneurs and bootstrapped startups, I launched a useful AI-powered tool—but no one saw it. With no big ad budget, no hype machine, and no team behind me, it became clear that great ideas often get buried in the noise.

So I built Pitch & Grind. It’s a marketplace and discovery platform that helps creators, startups, and digital builders connect with the right audience—without needing to game algorithms or burn through cash.

This platform is for:

  • Startups who want their projects seen and shared.
  • Creators looking for meaningful, niche-aligned products to make money on content.

We believe in visibility without gatekeepers. Growth without clickbait. And giving real people with real ideas a chance to get noticed.

Whether you’re launching, growing, or just exploring—Pitch & Grind gives you a place to be seen.

But this is more than just another social media platform. Pitch & Grind is built to support real-world reach through a network of smart exposure options:

  • Kickstarter and crowdfunding promoters to boost new launches
  • Product Hunt promotion partners to help get you featured
  • Podcast pitching to land guest spots with the right audiences
  • Reddit mentions and strategic community posts
  • Guest blogging and paid blog reviews to build SEO and trust
  • Newsletter sponsorships with niche relevance
  • Affiliate offers where brands can pay creators to promote with real incentives

Pitch & Grind is designed to connect projects with the right voice—not just more noise.

Bjorn Johansen
Founder, Pitch & Grind

I’m an engineer and builder at heart. Before Pitch & Grind, I founded Zyflora—an AI-powered content creation tool. That experience taught me just how hard it is to break through when you’re bootstrapping.

At Pitch & Grind, I lead product development and platform design. My goal is to make sure this is a place where great things rise—even without a massive marketing budget.
