I built a tool to find people already talking about problems your product solves

I spent too many hours trying to find my first users.

Like many indie hackers, I started with the usual approach:

  • Search keywords.
  • Browse communities.
  • Read hundreds of posts.
  • Try to guess who might need my product.

But I noticed something interesting:

The best potential users were not searching for products.

They were already talking about their problems.

They were posting things like:

"Is there a tool that can do this?"

"How are you solving this problem?"

"I tried X, but it doesn't work."

Those conversations are basically customer research gold — but finding them manually is painful.

That’s why I built Agenmatic.

Agenmatic is an AI agent designed to help founders discover people who are already discussing problems related to their products.

Instead of asking:

"Who might need my product?"

You can start with:

"Who is already experiencing this problem?"

By analyzing online discussions and identifying potential customer signals, Agenmatic helps indie hackers and founders discover relevant conversations faster and spend more time talking with potential users.

I'm looking for a few indie hackers to try the early version and share honest feedback.

I'll provide free credits for beta testers.

If you're building a SaaS, AI tool, or side project:

How do you currently find your first users?

    The shift from “who might need this?” to “who is already experiencing the problem?” is the interesting bet here.

    From the founders testing Agenmatic so far, are you seeing evidence that the conversations it surfaces actually lead to more meaningful first-user conversations than the prospecting methods they were using before?

    I think you're solving a real problem. One thing I've noticed while looking for beta users is that the hardest part isn't finding people—it's finding people who are actively feeling the pain today.

    Searching communities manually works, but it's incredibly time-consuming and easy to miss relevant conversations. If Agenmatic can reliably surface those intent signals instead of just matching keywords, I think that's where the real value is.

    I'd be interested in trying the beta and seeing how well it distinguishes genuine buying intent from general discussion. That seems like the hardest part of the problem.

    The interesting thing about this product is that the value isn't really "finding people" — it's finding people who have already raised their hand by talking about a problem.

    That distinction matters because founders usually don't struggle with a lack of possible leads; they struggle with knowing which conversations actually signal buying intent.

    I’d be curious how you’re positioning that difference on the homepage. The strongest opportunity I see is making the intent angle impossible to miss, because that’s what separates this from another lead database or monitoring tool.

    I noticed a couple of other messaging points that could affect conversion too — happy to share thoughts if useful.

    I'd love to try it out and be part of the beta testing.

      RRKBXYHT After you try it out, I’d really appreciate it if you could share your feedback.

    This is such a smart idea. If you can collect all these scattered ideas, analyze them, and find the patterns, you might uncover some really valuable opportunities. That’s where the hidden gems are.

    This is exactly a problem I’m facing right now.

    I spend a lot of time searching Reddit and communities for people who are already talking about problems my product solves. Finding real user intent is the hardest part.

    I’d love to try Agenmatic and share feedback. Thanks for building this!
