Original Summary

I’m starting to think founders validate their ideas too late. I’ve noticed something while talking to founders and working on my own products. When someone has a new idea, the first instinct is usually: → Start building → Create the website → Work on the branding → Add features → Run ads → Then try to find customers And only somewhere along the way do they start asking: “Do people actually want this?” The problem is that answering that question properly can take days or even weeks. You have to look at competitors, pricing, search demand, customer complaints, trends, reviews, industry news and what people are already asking for. And even after doing all that research, it can still be difficult to turn everything into an actual decision. That's actually what led me to build Revencast. Instead of treating validation as something you do after building the product, I wanted to make it something you could do before investing months of time and money. You enter an idea and the system researches the market and turns those signals into a structured validation report - competition, demand, pricing, opportunities, risks and what I should actually do next. I'm still improving it, so I'm curious: What's the biggest thing you normally want to know before deciding whether an idea is worth building? Market demand? Competition? Pricing? Customer pain points? Revenue potential? I'm especially interested in hearing how other founders currently validate their ideas.   submitted by   /u/LeoDon10 [link]   [comments]
