Business Idea: A platform that verifies the authenticity of “build in public” projects by providing transparent progress tracking, validation metrics, and real user feedback to help founders gain credibility and attract genuine support.
Problem: Many startup founders showcase venture progress with hype and vaporware landing pages, making it hard for investors and customers to assess real value, risking wasted effort and trust.
Solution: An SaaS tool that integrates with founders’ public update channels, hosting transparent dashboards displaying milestones, real-time analytics, and user evaluations, ensuring project credibility and reducing fake hype.
Target Audience: Early-stage startup founders, angel investors, venture capitalists, and early adopters seeking authentic, verifiable project progress.
Monetization: Subscription plans for founders to showcase their projects and premium analytics features; optional consultation services for reputation building and campaign management.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP): The only platform focusing on authentic transparency, enabling founders to build genuine trust through verified progress, cutting through hype, and differentiating themselves in crowded markets.
Launch Strategy: Start by creating a simple MVP that allows select founders to track and showcase key milestones publicly, gather user feedback, and gradually expand features based on real needs. Promote via startup communities and transparency-focused channels to attract authentic projects.
