1. Startup founders get lost in legal, accounting, and administrative tasks after incorporation, leading to stress and risks due to the lack of a clear, step-by-step plan. 2. The owner of a relaunched bar on the French coast cannot attract an audience in the evening due to the legacy of its past format (nightclub) and its isolated location. 3. Problem Analysis: Owners of small B2B businesses...

1. Recently, several small bloggers have talked about ProblemHunt: a few from the USA, a few from Spain, and one from France. And we noticed an obvious thing: traffic from these countries, although not much, has started to grow. 2. But the most important thing is that people from these countries have started sharing problems more actively. For example, in the last month alone, France has...

1. Problem Breakdown from the Moderator: A detailed description of a systemic pain point in the B2B segment has come to ProblemHunt. This is not a classic user request but rather an analysis from a consultant. We can't publish it as a standard problem, but it's too profound to ignore. Let's examine it as a case study. Before publication, all unnecessary information was removed while preserving...

Guys, a new problem from the USA has been posted. However, according to our observations, two very similar problems from other countries and by different authors have already been published on ProblemHunt. We recommend paying attention to this. 😊

Guys, ProblemHunt has formed an international community of developers (mainly from USA, India, Russia, UK, France, Germany, and other countries) who are looking for startup ideas based on real problems. We find and share different people's problems with them, and the community is now growing rapidly. Currently, all problems are published publicly and for free. However, they are published...

Guys, honestly: on our own, we only find 10–20 problems per month. That's not enough, and we've hit a ceiling. You can really help, if you tell people about ProblemHunt on Reddit, X, Telegram — wherever is convenient. The more people know about it, the more problems will appear on the site. And that means all of us will have a better chance of finding that very idea. Thank you to everyone for...

Guys, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I'd like to wish each of us to learn how to find problems that: 1. Haven't been solved by anyone yet. 2. People are truly willing to pay to have solved. 3. Have a really large market. 4. Solving them is profitable for you. 5. You enjoy solving. And, as per the old tradition, a few new problems have been published.

We weren't accepted into Y Combinator with our ProblemHunt. But I know a guy who got accepted this time. And he made 11 attempts. We'll try to do that too.

1. Describe the problem: I am a startup founder. My problem is periodic emotional burnout and a certain loneliness on this journey, especially when a project requires a long time and a huge amount of effort to get it off the ground to the first tangible results (on average, this takes 2-3 years). During the "low points" (once every few months), there is no one to honestly and kindly discuss...

Guys, over the past 3.5 months, we encountered one significant issue at ProblemHunt: Many contributors who shared problems aren't very motivated to provide feedback to developers for various reasons. Even among those willing to give feedback, not everyone agrees to work with more than 3–5 different developers (for context: currently, one contributor receives messages from 7–15 people on...

Guys, if you've created a product based on a problem from ProblemHunt and got your first users, you can tell about your product in our community and on the website — for free. I can't promise huge traffic: the site has gotten 25k+ visitors in the last 1.5 months, but maybe this will help someone attract some additional traffic. For that, just write me the product name, a brief description, the...

My journey in startups began 10 years ago, and I've launched 18 startups, most of which failed. Briefly on why they failed: 1. 🪦 «Contract Online» — my first startup in 2015, which was supposed to be an online service for remote signing of contracts for any transactions between individuals. A kind of analogue of a secure transaction. For this startup, I even managed to attract a business angel...
