Hey Product Hunt! 👋

I'm Ashu, the creator of Startup Co-Pilot – an AI-powered assistant that helps founders validate and plan their startup ideas with clarity and confidence.

Over the past few months, I’ve spoken to dozens of aspiring founders, students, and indie hackers who shared a common pain: they had amazing ideas but didn’t know if they were worth pursuing. Market research was confusing, competitive analysis felt overwhelming, and building a roadmap? Even harder.

Startup Co-Pilot was born to solve exactly that.

It’s a smart, intuitive web platform that helps you:

✅ Validate your startup idea

📊 Analyze the market and audience

🥇 Find and study competitors

💰 Generate business models

⚠️ Assess risks

🛣️ Plan your product roadmap

All of this happens through a sleek AI-powered interface — just describe your idea and Co-Pilot does the heavy lifting. Whether you're brainstorming, preparing for a pitch, or exploring multiple ideas, it’s like having a startup mentor on-demand.

💡 Some surprising use cases during early testing:

A student used it to design their pitch for a university incubator (and got accepted!)

One user mapped out 3 business models for a bootstrapped AI SaaS idea in minutes

Another ran competitive analysis before building a landing page — saving weeks of manual research
