🛠️ OPEN BUSINESS IDEAS 🛠️
Below a list of business/product ideas I had or read about.
They are worthless if they remain ideas and if you don't overcome the challenges in building them, so feel free to copy / tweak / implement them!
👇
A clock that displays the time it is @ProductHunt
Also displays what you should do and where you should post, at each specific time during your launch
A lot of awesome books are not available as audio.
Crowdfund the money to buy the audio rights + a voice actor
Based on the method by @taylorpearson https://t.co/a2fQodzeAs
Daily, weekly, quarterly questions to help you reevaluate what to do next
So you don't have to rely on a phone number for anything anymore
1 rule: Always Be Constructive
Monetize with private feeback or reviews from experts
Just insert an html tag in your template and your stripe keys, and your customers can buy all your ad space without your intervention
A list of different plants and their properties.
Heavily regulated, but will probably be legal in more and more places in the following decades. Start today to build tomorrow's leader (if it's legal where you operate)
A 5 lined summary of any article
Monetize with subscription, with the top shared articles
Probably already exists!
But you could start with a simple Typeform to book. Then on the backend just a spreadsheet of the top 50 photographers in your city, make and confirm all bookings manually by phone for starters.
Then automate your bottlenecks
A list of services where you pay in crypto and crypto only.
Add all competitors to Airbnb, Uber and other big tech companies
Automatically identify VIPs and big companies in your customer list so you can use them as social proof on your sales page.
Auto extract a nice profile picture for them or the logo of the company
Book a day pass in a gym near you (when travelling), with upfront pricing and no commitment
Make sure all links on your website are always valid
This exists for Wordpress as a plugin, make is for any CMS or website
A list of the most common food in a country.
Name in English, in local language, with photos and usual price
Import your YouTube and Spotify likes
Get a 1h+ DJ set recommandation, so you can have a good tune to focus without interruption
A chatbot that tells you if you need a visa to go to country X
Monetize with an affiliate link to book a plane ticket
Send anonymously a sweet note to someone via email / sms
The notes are manually reviewed to ensure they are lovely 😊, so charge for that
A telegram bot that sends you the % of the year that is already behind you
A checklist of all things you need to do and buy for your wedding.
Monetize by recommending trusted contractors.
There is CRAZY money spent in that space!
Send GPS coordinates and know if you can park your car or if you will get towed.
Because in the US it takes a PhD to understand, nothing is written on the ground!
A SaaS which automatically unsubscribes people that were sent X emails and never opened / never clicked
Commit to wake up before 5 am or you will be billed $20
(inspired by @levelsio's Go Fucking Do It)
Detect if a text contains spam, is offensive, or about US Politics
Create a remote company in 1 click.
Upfront pricing.
No surprise personal tax status for founders.
Zero tax avoidance, only peace of mind for bootstrappers
The best places worldwide to get your surgery done.
Maybe regulated, but crazy money in that space.

Results from yesterday’s poll. I’m inclined to agree. And this is something I’m going to fix in my next move.
As an indie maker you have a huge advantage if you can genuinely dogfood your product. Don’t do what I did and try to make a product for teams if you’re just one person. That’s really, really dumb 🙃
Before searching for product-market fit, ask yourself if you have founder-product fit. It is a humbling question but one worth investing the time to answer truthfully.
In hindsight, I have low founder-product fit with Talkshow. It’s for teams but I’m solo. It’s a big broad idea but as an indie I should be focused on a niche.
Just braindumping 🤪 Again thanks to @tylertringas for the micro-saas content on his blog, it helped me navigate / articulate some thoughts I was having.
Controversial question. Does it matter if you are a user of your own product?
