Over the last 3 years I launched 9 side projects. Every launch went the same way: a few upvotes, a couple of "looks cool!" comments from other builders, and zero people who actually had the problem. Every time, I skipped the boring part. I'd get an idea, decide in about ten minutes that people need it, then spend weeks on login, billing and a settings page nobody would ever open. The one time I did the research properly before building, it took me 2 to 3 days and an absurd number of browser tabs. Reddit threads, review sites, keyword tools, ad libraries, LinkedIn. My laptop fan still hasn't forgiven me. So I turned that process into Hunchcheck. You paste your idea (or your PRD, for the best results), check a short form, and about 15 minutes later you get a report with: - Who already sells it, what they charge, and what their customers complain about - How many people search for it each month, what advertisers pay per click, and whether interest is growing or fading - Real posts from people who have the problem, each with a link - Leads: people who posted about the problem recently, companies hiring someone to do the job by hand, and for B2B ideas, decision makers with work emails - Where to find your first users: communities, creators, and what ChatGPT recommends today - An honest verdict: build it, focus on a niche, change the business model, change direction, or don't build it. Plus a 7-day test so you can check it yourself Where the data comes from: Reddit, Hacker News, Google search and keyword data (with 5 years of search history), App Store and Google Play reviews, Trustpilot, Google and Meta ad libraries, LinkedIn, job posts, YouTube, TikTok, competitor websites and ChatGPT. Every claim links back to where it was found. Here's a full sample report, so you can see what you get before paying anything: https://hunchcheck.com/sample/roomsplit Launch price is $4.99 per idea until Nov 9 (normally $9.99) at https://hunchcheck.com . No account, no subscription. It can't tell you if you're good at selling. But it can tell you if you're about to build something nobody is looking for, which would have saved me a lot of months. Feedback is very welcome, the brutal kind included.   submitted by   /u/Straight-Ad-5944 [link]   [comments]
