How to Contact Them After Running

Find their personal email or DM. Not a contact form, not info@, not a LinkedIn connection request.

For each founder on the list you already have LinkedIn and GitHub. Check their GitHub profile first, most technical founders have an email in their bio or in their commit history. If not, check their personal site. If not, LinkedIn DM is fine but email converts better.

The message is short. No subject line theatrics, no intro about yourself, no explanation of what Ryva is.

Subject: [repo name]

Ran this on your repo. [specific gap you found], no owner assigned. Still the case?

If they reply yes or ask how you found it, that is when you send the share link. Not before.

Do not explain Ryva in the first message. Do not link to ryva.dev. Do not say you are 16 or building a startup. Just the gap. Let the specificity do the work.
