The joke, explained
Taken usually means someone is already in a relationship. Applying it to a startup makes the company the object of that commitment, and very tired supplies the cost. The joke combines relationship language with founder workload, turning a simple personal status into a compact description of where the time went.
For the founder whose most demanding relationship has a roadmap.

Questions
Who is the partner in this relationship status?
The startup takes that role in the joke. Calling the wearer taken gives company commitment a romantic structure, while the tired ending makes the demands of that relationship visible.
Could a founder's partner give this as a knowing gift?
Yes, if the founder enjoys this kind of self-aware workload joke. It acknowledges how much attention a company can absorb without making a claim about their actual personal relationship.
