>Looking for funding seems to be a wall I can't figure how to begin climbing and I think it's mostly due to Asperger in many ways and I'm not confident I can surmount that one alone in time.

Maybe get a person with great social/marketing skills to fill that role as a "co-founder"? The main problem then, is to know you can trust them (and set up the legal contracts between you so they're fair).

From that I'm getting the implicit information that maybe this is less of a thing I should learn and do on top of all the other things and more of a full time thing I need to learn to let someone else do anyway so I can focus my efforts elsewhere.

I was under the impression that a burst of investment in this early stage might be sufficient for now and that this might only take a couple weeks to sort out if I can find some guidance to make sure I don't forget anything major along the way.

There's also that I'm not convinced I know someone I'd trust to be that person

Unless you have the demo to end all demos and some VC connections, I don't think "a couple of weeks" is anywhere near realistic to sort our a "burst of investment". Not to any amount enough to hire to make a dev team, as you said is your goal.

"Six months to a year, and after quite a lot of struggle" is probably more realistic.
