The biggest challenged for me is staying focused on the core features. It’s easy to get carried away with adding extras, but it’s important to keep it simple.

One of the hardest parts is dealing with uncertainty. You never really know how the market will react until you launch, and that unpredictability can be stressful.
Staying ahead of the competition is a constant challenge. Keeping up with trends and ensuring the product remains relevant requires ongoing effort.
Validating your idea with potential customers early and often is crucial to avoid building something nobody wants.
The biggest challenge while building a new product is balancing innovation with user needs. It involves gathering feedback, iterating constantly, and ensuring the final product truly solves a problem. Keeping the team motivated and aligned helps a lot too!
Balancing user needs with what’s technically feasible is a challenge. Meeting expectations while sticking to budget and timeline is tricky.
Getting users to add adopt a new product is hard. It takes a lot of effort to convince them to switch and integrate it into their routines.
For sure, validating your idea with target users before building is key. I'd also say managing feature creep is a big challenge. It's tempting to keep adding stuff, but better to ruthlessly prioritize the core functionality that delivers value. Launch lean, then iterate based on real user feedback. Easier said than done though!
The first biggest challenge is market analysis. A founder should analysis the demand of market before building the tool.
The biggest challenge is to build something AFTER you have validated the ideas with the prospective end-user. What sounds good in practice does often not have a market. So start pitching your idea with potential end-users BEFORE building anything.
