What makes a good founder bio?

Specificity. Vague claims ("passionate about helping companies grow") sound the same as everyone else. Concrete numbers, named companies, and a clear motivation always beat adjectives.

Should it tell the company's story or the founder's?

Both — woven together. The strongest founder bios show why this person is the right person to be building this thing, not just a biography of either alone.

Can I use it for a solo founder?

Yes. For solo founders we recommend slightly more personal detail — values, motivation, and how you spend your time — so the company feels like a person, not a website.
