Stop burning time & money chasing bad ideas. Discuss your startup idea or new feature with those with interest, experience or expertise in your target area.
Product Hunters! Welcome!
Over the years, I have spoken with many types of people/companies that are all asking the same thing "Is my idea any good."
Entrepreneurs ask if the idea they have right now is strong and worth pursuing.
Startups ask if their product fits the market's needs or how they can improve or pivot.
Companies ask what their next most significant problem to solve or feature should be.
Or, if you are like me, you have found a problem and want to discuss potential solutions.
IdeaClarity aims to answer those questions by connecting you directly to individuals that can help answer them.
By taking some initial information from you, such as potential target market, likely attributes, interests, experience, etc.
We then gather a list of partners from our database with high matching scores and present them to you.
You can then submit a survey to these partners or opt for quick, 15-minute one-to-one meetings.
By the end of the process, we hope you have the answers you need to move forward.
What makes IdeaClarity unique compared to other feedback/validation tools/services? It hyper-focus on high-quality matches.
No generic feedback that can skew results.
No unuseful information you don't know what to do with.
Real people with a personal/professional connection to your idea can speak directly from the mind of someone in your potential target market.
We also offer a partner program that allows individuals to show interest in giving feedback and get paid for each piece of feedback they provide. An additional incentive to keep quality high and participants growing.
So, that's IdeaClarity, we have so many improvements planned for the future, and we welcome feedback, comments and even partner-applications from other makers/product-hunters.
Thanks!
Nice product and I would consider using this.
A question - how do the economics work? $250 for 10 interviews does not seem like all that much money to incentivise interviewees?
Hey @ronankmcgovern its a good question and one we aim to refine as we grow.
Right now, it works out that $250 for 10 x 15-minute meetings means we pay each of our interviewees $20 for 15 minutes of their time.
If they were in an ideal world) able to get four back-to-back (totalling an hour), they could be making $80 an hour.
The Minimum wage in the UK equates to about $10.50, so making almost double the minimum hourly wage for 15 minutes of your time felt like quite an incentive.
That being said, it is something I am keen to refine, as there are so many factors to consider (geolocation, profession, etc) that can play a factor.
@kieranparker77 cool! Thanks
Makes sense to keep it simple for now. Over time it may make sense to have more of a market based approach. Depending on the customer base, I would expect there is a different willingness to pay (and indeed for relevant interviewees to give their time).

Hey Kieran!
Love the idea, but I have a question. My demographic is more blue than white collared. Does your database of matches have anything in the contracting / material supply industry?

Thank you for creating this! I'm currently exploring an idea which would really benefit from this, excited to check it out!
