1. Describe the problem:
I'm searching for startup ideas and constantly face one agonizing problem: when I find an interesting project (for example, on ProblemHunt, X/Twitter, TrustMRR, or idea databases like bigideasdb.com), the next step is a deep analysis (research) of that niche and the specific project. Currently, this process is 5-8 hours of manual labor in Perplexity and a dozen other tools. I need to understand: the market, competitors, how they attract traffic (SEO, TikTok, B2B), funding, founder activity. Existing "research" services (bhag.ai, ideabrowser.com) produce low-quality, superficial analysis, resembling a structured ChatGPT response that can't be trusted.
2. How often does the problem occur?
The problem occurs with every new project or niche I consider. If analyzing a niche with 5-10 projects, the effort becomes overwhelming. This is the main barrier between "seeing an idea" and "starting to do custdev."
3. What attempts have you made to solve the problem?
I've tried:
- Manual analysis (5-8 hours per project).
- Services like bigideasdb.com (feels like a simple ChatGPT wrapper).
- Ideabrowser.com (poorly made, not trustworthy).
- Bhag.ai (bought research for $49 — the result was "crap," very low quality).
I need a service that, for money, delivers precisely a quality, in-depth, and structured research report.

4. How much are you willing to pay for the solution?
I'm willing to pay for deep, expert analysis of each specific project or niche. The value lies in saving 8+ hours of time and getting structured, reliable data for decision-making. A pay-per-report or subscription model is negotiable. Remember, I already bought research for $49, which is an acceptable price point.
