Hey everyone 👋
I’m Fatah, and I built IntelLaunchpad after making the same mistake over and over again…
Building things nobody wanted.
I’d spend weeks building, launch, and hear nothing.
So I changed one thing:
Instead of starting with ideas, I started with real problems people were already complaining about.
IntelLaunchpad helps with that:
Find real problems from communities
Validate if they’re worth solving
Get direction before building
It’s still early, but it already helped me avoid building in the dark.
Would love your feedback 🙏

@sachin_thawari That’s great to hear, appreciate you trying it.
Glad the validation and suggestions were useful. That’s exactly what I’m aiming for, helping refine ideas and avoid common mistakes early.
Would love to hear what stood out most for you or what you think could be improved.
What sources are you pulling from to find real problems and how do you separate a loud complaint from something people would actually pay to solve?

@doble_duche Right now I’m mainly pulling from places where people speak freely about problems: Reddit, forums, and community discussions.
The harder part is exactly what you said, separating “loud complaints” from real opportunities.
What I’ve been doing so far:
Looking for repeated complaints across different threads
Checking if people mention workarounds or tools they already use/pay for
Focusing on problems tied to a specific type of user, not broad audiences
Prioritizing things that affect a workflow, not just opinions
It’s still not perfect, but the goal with IntelLaunchpad is to make those signals more structured so it’s easier to decide what’s actually worth building.
Curious how you usually validate that difference?

How does it differentiate between a real validated problem and just a noisy complaint thread on Reddit? Solid concept for pre-build validation, congrats!
Great question. The goal isn’t to treat every complaint as a validated problem, but to look for signals around it.
Things like:
repetition (same issue showing up across threads)
intensity (people frustrated enough to complain or rant)
behavior (are they using workarounds or paying for alternatives?)
A single noisy thread doesn’t mean much, but when patterns start repeating across different users and contexts, that’s when it becomes more meaningful.
Still improving this, but trying to focus on patterns over one-off noise.
