Validate.Then.Build

Hey Product Hunt 👋 Over the last few years, I noticed something consistent: Most founders don’t fail because their idea is bad. They fail because they build too early — or build with the wrong execution structure. ValidateThenBuild is an experiment in changing that. Instead of charging development fees, we partner on equity — but only when there’s real validation behind the idea. No speculative builds. No “let’s just ship and see.” Proof first. Then product. I’m genuinely curious: How do you approach validation before building? Have you built something too early before? Would love to hear your experiences — and if you’re a domain expert with real market signal but lacking a technical co-founder, apply. Let’s build better.
