Introduction
Build In Process is a builder-first platform designed for people who are actively creating things like products/projects, startups, tools, and ideas.
Unlike traditional professional networks that emphasize polished resumes and job titles, Build In Process focuses on work-in-progress.
The core idea is simple:
Most platforms treat products like events.
But building is a process.
And the platform is built entirely around that belief.
What makes Build In Process different?
1. A complete builder profile
Your profile on Build In Process isn’t just a bio.
You can:
Showcase what you’re building
Add projects and products
Share ongoing updates
Connect external work (writing, videos, repositories, etc.)
Maintain a clean public profile with a custom URL
Everything lives in one place, making it easier for visitors to understand what you’re actually working on.
2. Product profiles that evolve over time
Instead of a one-time launch page, every product gets a living profile.
You can:
- Post updates as you ship
- Share progress, learnings, and changes
- Collect feedback on every iteration
- Show how your product evolves over time
This is especially useful for early-stage builders where progress matters more than polish.
3. Writing, stories, and updates
The platform includes built-in writing and posting tools so builders can:
- Share what they’re learning
- Write technical or product stories
- Post short updates or long-form posts
- Engage with other builders’ work
It feels closer to a builder-focused publishing platform than a traditional social network.
4. Discovery without noise
Build In Process is intentionally designed to reduce noise:
- No ads at all
- No engagement bait
- No vanity-first algorithms
Instead, discovery is centered around:
- Active builders
- Real updates
- Consistent progress
This makes it easier to find people and products worth following.
5. Verification and authenticity
Verification on Build In Process is straightforward and free.
Whether you’re a student, professional, or independent builder, the process is designed to be simple — without paywalls or unnecessary friction.
The focus is on authentic work, not inflated credentials.
Build In Process vs traditional networks
Both have their place.
Traditional platforms are great for:
- Job hunting
- Corporate networking
- Formal professional presence
- Build In Process shines when it comes to:
- Building in public
- Sharing progress honestly
- Connecting with other makers
- Documenting your journey over time
It’s less about who you are and more about what you’re building.

Final thoughts
If you’re a builder who:
- Ships regularly
- Likes sharing progress
- Wants meaningful feedback
- Believes products don’t end on launch day
Then Build In Process is worth checking out.
It’s growing quietly, but intentionally and platforms like this tend to matter more over time.
