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.

1. The lack of a service that creates hyper-personalized, gamified English courses (in the Duolingo format) for narrow professional niches (e.g., for a barista in a vegan coffee shop or a startup founder.

2. Automating cross-posting of an indie hacker's technical content across multiple platforms (Twitter, LinkedIn, Product Hunt) while adhering to each platform's best practices.

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 successful.
Soon we'll publish the first Validated Problem on ProblemHunt.
Best regards,
Boris and Victoria

1. No way for city residents to order delivery from local stores to their elderly relatives in remote villages.

2. It's difficult for parents of newborns in India to organize vaccination: there is no service for easy doctor search and a turnkey process provision.

3. Solar installation companies lack a platform for end-to-end tracking of a customer's project from sale to official approval, causing complaints and dissatisfaction.

1. Global problem: Dating apps fail for complex lives (illness, relocation, unfulfilled youth). A platform is needed for matching based on life path compatibility.

2. 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.

3. A startup founder loses focus and productivity juggling 5-7 tools for a single project. Existing all-in-one platforms don't provide the feel of a unified workspace.

4. An African entrepreneur cannot accept international payments on Shopify. PayPal blocks, Stripe is unavailable. There is no payment gateway that does not discriminate based on geography.

5. Micro-influencer cannot monetize a loyal audience: there is no safe and effective platform for deals with small brands and those willing to work with small influencers in India.

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.

Guys, over the past 3.5 months, we encountered one significant problem at ProblemHunt:

1. 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 average). And without quality feedback, it s difficult to clarify all the details and build a great product.

2. To solve this problem, we talked to some of the contributors and found out: they are willing to provide feedback much more actively if they can receive 1% equity in the future startup. According to them, this would give them strong motivation to help with advice and actively participate in testing.

3. Therefore, we decided to run an experiment over the next few months. Now, in the problem submission form, contributors can optionally indicate that they want to receive 1% equity in the future startup. And we will mention this in the publication for you.

4. By the way, if you currently have a problem and also want to get 1% equity in a future startup, you can seize this opportunity right now on ProblemHunt!

Hey, Product Hunt Community
1. Argentina: Startups lose knowledge as they grow. Manual documentation doesn't work. Need a smart tool for automatic knowledge capture and retrieval. Willing to pay from $25/month.

2. USA: Moving with furniture is a weeks-long headache. No service picks up everything and pays fairly. Willing to give up to 50% commission just to get rid of this pain.

3. Andorra: Centralized tracking of tasks, time, and attendance for field staff. No unified dashboard, manual entry leads to errors and wasted time. Ready to investin a solution.

Boris
