⚡ Coming soon: validated problems for startups with a high chance of success.
Hey Product Hunt 👋, for the past few months we've been working hard on a new type of publication. We called them «Validated Problems». «Validated Problems» are problems for which we find at least 20 real people who experience the same issue. We speak with each of them in person and uncover all the details needed to build a startup that is highly likely to be in demand — and therefore...
⚡ 3 New Problems to Build a Startup | ProblemHunt
Hey Product Hunt 👋 1. A Russian developer built an app for Nigeria but can't accept payments. App stores are unavailable, direct providers are complex. Needs a simple solution. Budget $500–700. 2. Need an AI app: upload a photo → get a weekly verdict «progress / no progress» and advice on when to increase load. Existing trackers either lack AI or are too complex. Willing to pay $100/year. 3....
⚡ 3 New Problems to Build a Startup | ProblemHunt
Hey Product Hunt 👋 1. No simple, affordable «credit layer» to bridge payment processors with user balances — developers rebuild credit tracking, consumption logic, and refunds for every app. 2. For 5 years, goods have been stolen from the office. There is no available service that automatically analyzes camera footage and sends alerts about suspicious activity. 3. Risk of a LinkedIn ban due to...

⚡ Real Problem: A Product Designer Afraid AI Will Replace Her
Guys, a month ago, Anna, a product designer, reached out to me from the ProblemHunt community. She described her problem in detail in DMs. It was probably the most genuine and sincere description of pain I have ever seen. Anna has this ability to talk about her problems with complete openness and raw emotion — for any researcher, it's an absolute gift. Today she shared a new problem, and I've...
⚡ 4 New Problems to Build a Startup | ProblemHunt
1. 5 partners — 5 different CV templates. Managers spend 20–40 minutes on each adaptation, up to 15 times a week. Over a year of this routine. No ready-made solutions found. 2. Healthcare professionals want AI for diagnosis, documentation, and patient care — but training doesn't scale and tools feel too technical. Need a simple, clinically relevant path. 3. Two years searching for reliable,...
⚡ 5 New Problems to Build a Startup | ProblemHunt
Hey, friends! 👋 We've posted 5 new problems. Especially check out problem #4 (first I laughed, then I thought about it, and then I posted it 😂 🕊️). 1. Nigeria's transport trap: Uber/Bolt too expensive, okada too deadly, Danfo buses a nightmare. Millions need safe, affordable carpooling. Ready to pay. 2. Photographer loses 20–30% of clients to spam — needs an AI clone with a copy of her voice to...
⚡ 5 New Problems to Build a Startup | ProblemHunt
Global problem: Dating apps fail for complex lives (illness, relocation, unfulfilled youth). A platform is needed for matching based on life path compatibility. Daily routine: after every client meeting, I need to write a structured report for colleagues. Existing corporate tools (Microsoft 365) are inefficient and slow for this. A startup founder loses focus and productivity juggling 5-7 tools...
Are you sure most existing solutions really solve someone’s problem well? 👀
1. Guys, I’ve been noticing more and more often in the comments something along these lines: «This problem was solved many years ago, here’s a solution I found on Google in 1 minute». 2. Yes, most often, a problem you see on ProblemHunt at first glance seems to be already solved. And I fell into this trap myself. For example, for one of the problems on PH that I wanted to solve, I found at...
