Hey everyone, I’m Ricky, the maker of IdeaVerify. For years, I had this habit of getting super excited about an idea… and then immediately diving into building it. I’d come home from work, code until midnight, wake up early, code again on weekends, months of effort fueled purely by motivation and vibes. And then I’d launch. And nothing would happen. No users. No feedback. No signals. Just silence. I went through this with Student Grounds (which took me a year to build) and Mobsteer (six months of effort). Both times I ended up questioning whether I was even a good developer, when in reality, the problem wasn’t my execution. It was that I had zero validation before investing all that time. Eventually I learned how important it was to test ideas early, so I created a manual validation process for myself: a quick landing page, a waitlist, a subdomain, Google Analytics, and posting to communities to see if anyone cared. When I tested an NFT-degree idea, the waitlist blew up. People DM’d me saying, “Is this live yet? I need this now.” That was the first time I felt what it was like to get real signals before building. But doing that whole setup manually every time was exhausting. If I had 20 ideas I wanted to test, that could be weeks of work. So I built the tool I wish I had back then. IdeaVerify instantly generates a landing page, a subdomain, a waitlist, and analytics, all in minutes, so you can validate ideas fast and stop wasting months building things no one asked for. I’m launching it today because I know there are so many indie hackers and founders who’ve gone through what I went through: building in the dark, launching into silence, and losing motivation because there was no feedback loop. If IdeaVerify helps even one builder avoid the time I wasted, it’ll be worth it. I’d love your feedback, ideas, and honest thoughts. Thanks so much for checking it out ❤️ Ricky
