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).

40(weak)

FeasibilityBased on existing supply count (inverse percentile — less supply = higher feasibility), build difficulty, and source diversity.

50(moderate)

6d old Building up Demand only (still incubating)

How we calculated this 39/100

25×30% + 40×45% + 50×25% = 38 → × 1.00 freshness → × 1.00 bronze = 39

Final score discounts: freshness drops ~50% per week (6d 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

Demand cooling -18% next 14 days (confidence 85%) — momentum is fading
Only 2 mentions across platforms — evidence thin, validate before building
No paid evidence AND no competitors — could mean "no market" rather than "open market"

VALIDATE THIS WEEK

This weekend: DM 5 of the reddit:amazonfba users who complained — ask if they'd pay $9/mo for a fix (no build yet)
Next 7 days: ship a 2-page landing site with $9/mo waitlist + "request beta" form — count signups
If <10 signups in 7 days: kill it · the demand isn't there at this price
