I’m testing whether social media can tell you if an idea is worth building before you build it

I’m testing whether social media can tell you if an idea is worth building before you spend weeks building it.

So here’s exactly what I’m doing.

You send me an idea you’re thinking about building.

I’ll turn it into a validation post.

I’ll break down:
what problem we’re testing
what response would actually count as interest
what would count as a buying signal
what would tell us NOT to build it

Then we post it and look at what actually happens.

Not just likes.

I want to know:
How many people stopped to respond.
How many described having the problem.
How many asked for the solution.
How many wanted to try it.

And how many showed actual intent to pay.

I’m doing the first 10 manually for free because I want real data before I build the system.

If you have an idea you’ve been sitting on, comment it below.

I’ll pick a few and show the entire validation process here — including the results if nobody wants the idea.
