Hi Guys,
Recently I was talking to my friends and it seems like all the mass consumer ideas have already been built.
It is very hard to identify whether or not an idea is good.
But I think that for most entrepreneurs, once they think that an idea is great, they instantly start working on it.
But it is more heartbreaking than your girl dumping you, that someone else has already built your idea/product.
Or even worse is that the product you want to build cannot be a real business.
That is why I have made a portal where a user has to enter their product idea and then after web scraping, a list of their competition will be generated.
They will get an in-depth competition analysis and also a blueprint of what tech stack to use to build this, what type of challenges they might face in the particular industry(through llm) and if building this feature even possible.
Kindly lay on your active criticism as they are very valuable for me.
I know that their are static report generators online, but I also know that founders don't have enough money to pay for it.
So even I might not charge for the services. Will just collect their emails and hopefully build a newsletter.
That said, if I had what I thought was a truly new and original idea, I wouldn’t want to type it into a form to tell me what tech stack to use. First, there is no one right answer for this, so it seems like it would be a random stack generator. Second, I’d be worried the form is just a way for a developer to harvest other people’s ideas and I wouldn’t want to give anyone a head start on my idea if it’s truly new. Maybe this is paranoid, but it kind of sounds like what would actually be happening here.
Also, why do I want this random newsletter? Getting spammed with email makes the service have a non-zero cost. Receiving unwanted email is generally not a price I’m willing to pay, and it gives me a negative view of a service. Some of my least favorite sites are ones that have me fill out a bunch of information, with the expectation that they will provide some kind of answer, then at the very end, they put the result behind an email wall. I always use something like mailinator in this case, and if they don’t allow those, I simply leave. It’s not a game I’m going to play and I don’t care enough about whatever the site will tell me to end up in an email list.
