Get Report for My IndustryHow I find these
Not AI opinions. Not surveys. Documents.
I scrape regulatory databases
Court filings, EPA fines, FTC settlements, OSHA violations, SEC data. Every industry has a paper trail of losses.
I verify the dollar amounts
Each problem gets a financial impact from a public source. If I can’t attach a real dollar amount, it doesn’t make the database.
You pick a problem and build
The problem is guaranteed. The market exists. People are losing money right now. Whether you build the right solution is on you.

Why I built this
I got tired of the "validate your idea" advice loop. Come up with an idea, talk to 20 people, build an MVP, find out nobody cares. Repeat.
So I flipped it. Instead of starting with a solution and hoping a problem exists, I started with documented problems — regulatory filings, industry audits, court settlements — and worked backwards.
4 months later: 4,410 problems across 305 industries. Every single one verified with a real dollar amount from a public source. I call these "unfair gaps" — problems so well-documented that the market risk is essentially zero.
The problem is guaranteed. Nobody's built the tool yet. That's your opportunity.
Stop guessing. Start with proof.
4,410 pains backed by court filings, regulatory data, and industry reports. Each one is a business waiting to be built.
