About
13+ years making things run at bootstrapped and VC-backed companies. Built and sold a proptech startup. Now automates the fundraising grind so founders don't have to. At Causo, Dawid turns product ideas into shipped flows — the integrations, automations, and unglamorous plumbing that make a raise feel less manual. His guides on the Hub dig into the practical side: what to automate, what to delegate, and how to compound traction without hiring a BD team before you're ready.
