Business Idea: A platform connecting pre-launch startup projects with usability testers and beta users, helping founders gather early feedback and build in public via a shared directory.
Problem: Early-stage startups struggle to find reliable users for usability testing and feedback, leading to poor onboarding experiences, low user engagement, and delayed product improvements.
Solution: An online directory where startup founders can list their MVPs or pre-launch products, seek usability testers, and receive valuable feedback to refine their onboarding flows and overall user experience.
Target Audience: Early-stage startups, product founders, UX/UI designers, and anyone building MVPs or products in pre-launch phase seeking honest user insights.
Monetization: Revenue streams include premium listings for startups, paid outreach or promotion, and optional consulting or feedback services from testers.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP): Combines a directory for pre-launch products with direct access to usability testers, creating a community-driven ecosystem focused on early user input and building in public.
Launch Strategy: Start by creating a simple landing page to gather initial startup listings, outreach to early testers and founders via social media, and offer free listings or trials to build credibility and gather initial feedback.
