TimingBased on trigger event count, event freshness (14d window), and growth forecast. Percentile against all active cards.
25(weak)
SeverityBased on pain intensity level, mentions (full-corpus percentile), and paid-evidence count (log scale).
29(weak)
FeasibilityBased on existing supply count (inverse percentile — less supply = higher feasibility), build difficulty, and source diversity.

How we calculated this 28/100
25×30% + 29×45% + 25×25% = 27 → × 1.00 freshness → × 1.00 bronze = 28
Final score discounts: freshness drops ~50% per week (7d old), and grade weight reflects how many of the 3 signal types (demand/supply/trigger) we found.

Should you build this?

YES, if
  • You can ship in 1-2 weeks on $0-20/mo infrastructure
  • No direct competitors yet — first-mover window open
THINK TWICE
  • Only 1 mention across platforms — evidence thin, validate before building
  • No paid evidence AND no competitors — could mean "no market" rather than "open market"
VALIDATE THIS WEEK
  1. This weekend: DM 5 of the reddit:selfhosted users who complained — ask if they'd pay $9/mo for a fix (no build yet)
  2. Next 7 days: ship a 2-page landing site with $9/mo waitlist + "request beta" form — count signups
  3. If <10 signups in 7 days: kill it · the demand isn't there at this price
