Is Idea Validation important to you?

I've been going down a rabbit hole recently around idea validation. In the past, when starting a business of project, I have done everything from blindly pursuing the idea until something worked (often hard) right through to doing a more formal testing of the idea (worth it but harder to be objective). I'm curious. How do PH people do idea validation? If you have a great idea, what are your next steps? Edit: there have been some really fantastic thoughts and suggestions here! Starting with the end-user in mind is key, in an effort to understand their pains. I'm still curious as to how to ascertain market demand. Where do you go to see potential demand for an idea?

How did you grow/find your first group of users to a MVP product you just launched?

I'm a junior product marketer looking for advice. My team and I just launched a service called RoundUp, which is a free Chrome extension made for HR professionals. It's like a memopad that pops open inside Google Meet, where they can fill out candidate reviews once the interview is over - and it automatically links to a Dashboard, where HR folks can see everything in one place. It's got very basic features (so a MVP) and of course there are many things we need to get to. I'm new to doing product marketing and would love some advice from those who's gone through this phase of trying to grow the userbase from a grassroots perspective. What was the best way to get users on your site/product/service at the beginning? Were people willing to give you feedback and advice? (How did you find them?) Would love to hear your stories/kind advice!

What is your biggest learning experience from failure?

Failure presents great opportunities to learn and some might stick with you. Mine would likely be community first, failing to prioritise community building and nurturing caused my first project to dwindle

Let's create an Ai to help US healthcare patients fight denials!

Hello brilliant minds of PH, With health insurance claim denials in the media and having had some personal frustrations with the inept process of claims and reimbursement I'm putting this idea out into the ether to rustle up interest in creating this product for the greater good. There are services that currently help clients get reimbursement for counseling such as: mentaya.com but nothing that helps those after a denial to fight for their deserved financial support. It's bad enough to have this crisis in our community in the US but the Health Care industry is arming itself with more and more tools to deny claims, let's flip the script on this and empower those most in need. How can this indie dev community come together to create something actually life changing for millions of Americans?
