How do you measure product-market fit?

You have signups, but how do you make sure that you have the product-market fit?

Two things I think are the best tests of product-market-fit: 1. Customers who will stand on a soap box and tell the world about how the product changed their life, and 2. Paying customers. Parting with hard earned cash to use a product is the ultimate test of PMF

Look at server usage and support needs. If you need more rack space because of traffic and you need to hire to keep up with support requests. Two simple ways to tell if your product has value in the market. Remember support request shows an interest in continuous usage. If they aren't requesting help then they don't care to keep using your solution.

if you have to ask your self if you have product market fit. you probably not have it

Good question! I think in the world of positivity it makes this quite difficult to get true sense. Competitiveness in sw space doesn't help. You almost need a viable channel and GTM plan in place as well just to get above noise floor. I'm sure there are generic responses, but its more complicated than that. Engagement of organic users may be purest form.

My go-to is the product-market fit score coined by Rahul Vohra: https://review.firstround.com/ho... Bonus article on PMF: https://www.nfx.com/post/superhu...

Are customers happy ? Do they use the product ? Are they happy to pay the price you're asking ? Also, I've tried to sum up a more pragmatic view that the official version : https://geer.fr/en/product-marke...

If it's pre-launch, I would say by competitor analysis. Their growth, customers, traffic etc.

Hello @noyanidin I will say Growth and Profit once you detect the Retention is good enough in your product. If every month you see your user base growing and also your profit and retention keep stable, I will say you have a product-market fit. What do you think? Cheers,
