TECHCorroboratedⓘEvidence tiers: Early signal = 1 uncorroborated request — treat as radar, not a validated opportunity · Corroborated = 2-3 requests · Validated = 4+ requests from 2+ different people. Every count appears exactly once, in the fact bar below — each traces to a real source post.

9 rivals shipping (fact bar)see prices → market is crowded; differentiate on the unmet requirements above, don't compete on breadth.
2 builder posts asking · 2 different people (fact bar)see posts → demand is independently reported, not one person repeating themselves.
2 demand signals vs 9 shipping rivals → supply already outweighs demand — enter only with an edge.
0 willingness-to-pay quotes yet → no one has named a price — validate pricing before building.
last new signal 12 days ago → conversation is recent.
