The Dock

Welcome to The Dock — the community of OneMillion builders who have shipped.

The Dock is the alumni network of everyone who has completed the Ship Cycle and received their Builder Number. It's where builders continue to:

  • Connect with other builders
  • Share opportunities
  • Learn from each other
  • Collaborate on new projects
  • Give back to future cohorts
