Describe your mobile app idea in one sentence and ValidKit analyzes thousands of real App Store reviews from your competitors and hands you a report on what users love, what to avoid, what they'll pay for, and where the gap is. No subscription, pay per report, use any time at your own pace.
What I like here is that you're trying to reduce validation to evidence instead of opinions.
One question I kept thinking about: how do you stop founders from overfitting to what existing App Store reviews already reward?
Sometimes the products that create new categories initially look "invalid" through competitor data because there isn't enough comparable evidence yet. Curious how you think about balancing market evidence with genuinely novel ideas.
@aryan787544 The way I see ValidKit: it shows you what people love and complain about the closest existing apps, and then it's you who makes the call on what to build. It shows you evidence, not necessarily a verdict.
@biancarosca I like that distinction. The evidence informs the decision rather than making it.
The part I'd be watching over time is whether founders start treating ValidKit as a way to reduce uncertainty or as a way to gain conviction. Those sound similar, but they lead to very different decisions when the evidence is incomplete.
I'm curious which behavior you're seeing more so far.
How recent are the reviews it pulls, and does it let you filter by region or time frame before running the report?
@egeumurbey Reviews are pulled most-recent-first, so they are more focused toward the latest ones. And pulled from roughly 57 different countries.
No region or date-range filter before running it yet, but that's great feedback. Would you filter by region, timeframe, or both?
How recent are the reviews you pull, and can I narrow it down to just the last 3 months for a specific competitor?
@eraysmzp It's pulling the latest reviews, but as of now with no filtering capability to just the last 3 months. But that's something I might add later!
Ran a report on a fitness app niche and the breakdown of what users actually complain about was spot on, saved me from a few obvious mistakes. Love the pay per report model too, way less pressure than another monthly subscription.
The pay-per-report model instead of another subscription is such a smart move for indie builders like me, makes it way less intimidating to actually try. Love that the insights come from real reviews rather than guesswork.
@erva914472 Thank you! Would love to hear how it goes if you run one 🙌
