Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Rehan, and I built Idea Validator to answer 1 question quickly: is there room in the market for my idea?
You describe your idea in plain English and get a verdict backed by live web research: competitors, market size, and the main reasons it could fail.
The part I’m most curious about: you can see your idea through the eyes of someone else. Type Paul Graham, Y Combinator, Naval, Sequoia or anyone you like. It looks up what they’ve published about judging ideas, then shows what would catch their eye, what would worry them, and the questions they’d ask you, with links to the sources. It’s an AI’s reading of their published criteria, not them and not endorsed by them.
You can also turn any report into a feasibility study with a product-market fit rating, and export it to PDF, Word or Excel.
It’s free to try: you can get a quick preview without signing up, and a free account gets you the full report and 5 validations a day.
I’d love your feedback: which perspective would you want to see your idea through, and what would make the reading more useful to you? I’ll reply to everything whenever I can.
