Late Labs is a San Francisco based “crowdcoding” startup founded by Justin Johnson and Nathan Ross.[1] The startup aims to connect people with ideas (hustlers) with developers (hackers) who are compensated for their coding with equity.[2]

Background

[edit]

Late Labs was founded in 2012 to connect ideas with the resources to make them a reality.[3] The startup has many projects open for contribution. The projects are aimed for developers to find worthwhile sides projects and gain equity for reward in an eventual exit.[2] The website had over 3,500 developers sign-up in its first month after launch.[4]

The startup's first project is called “Buggle Us” and is planned to be a Google Chrome extension for simple file sharing and editing.[1]

Late Labs has been featured in TechCrunch, VentureBeat, Tech Cocktail, Pando Daily, and others.[1][2][4][5] It is now inactive.
