Note: Please keep in mind that this is a "shower idea". 😂
The other day I was thinking if people would use a dedicated place to validate their ideas.
Concept: Get a monthly subscription with let's say 10$. This will give you a budget to spend on ideas. You will spend this budget to upvote early-stage ideas and MVPs.
Why? Because money is the best indicator of validating an idea. So if someones bet your MVP or idea with their money, we can say that they really want to see it alive. And each product just offers some "early bird incentive" for people who bet their products.
Question: Would it help early-stage products to raise the initial capital to build their app?
Question 2: 👌Yay or 😰Nay
Tricky. Is it like a gamified idea betting system? It could work.
It would be nice if I pay 10$ per idea, and then people will bet (without seeing other people's bet, and without betting money) on whether it will work or not.
To incentivize people to make a bet, you reward them in some way. the reward system will be tricky to establish. Happy to connect and drill down on it more, i like it. Is there anything similar?
It's really hard to tell because an upvote is very far from validation.
I like your concept of creating an environment to encourage people exchange and support the ideation development process. Maybe you can drill down a little bit.
I am also in the middle of thinking how to make "validation" more effective and efficient. keen to hear your thoughts @emredemirel
I wouldn't pay for anything related to gaming, but I would invest money in a gaming business. So, I could contaminate the idea validation data because I would invest in something I wouldn't pay for.
