So money to hire or a co-founder to share work would be great help. I am afraid I might burnout working 18 hour days.
So you're only looking for a cofounder in order to unlock some VC money and get the job done. I don't think your setup is a receipe for success. I've seen that configuration so many times and it usually doesn't lead to any good outcome.
Plus, you're competing with all the other startups or wannabe startups in order to hire a developer (for free).
You will have to lower your bar and go back to square one. Since I'm assuming you're not generating any money, all you have is 4 pending contracts, no funds and no product? Is that accurate? If so, forget about the contracts and look for a friend(developer) that'll partner with you on this idea. Make it sound like a solid 50/50 split. You better do it at the very beginning to build a solid team.
Focus on building the product and generating revenue. If you can prove your idea works and it can scale, it doesn't matter how many founders there are, or whether you spend 10 or 100 hours a week working on it.
No sane investor will turn down an opportunity, given that it generates revenue and it can scale well.
