I built a product called IndieDeck. The original idea was simple: a place for founders and indie hackers/builders to showcase themselves, their projects, links, products, verified MRR, build log and everything they're working on.
The reality:
It's a nice-to-have product, not a must-have product. People like it.
Very few people NEED it.
So I'm considering a complete pivot.
Not adding more features.
Not redesigning the UI.
Possibly changing the entire value proposition.
My question is: What would make YOU pull out your credit card?
Not "that's cool."
Not "I'd try it."
Actually pay every single month !
If there was a platform built specifically for indie hackers, builders, founders, operators, creators, or internet entrepreneurs:
'Would love brutally honest feedback!'
What is the biggest unsolved problem in your world, in your workflow right now?
What stood out to me wasn't the lack of a must-have feature.
It was that you're already talking about solutions before being certain what decision the product is actually helping someone make.
That's one of those things that can make a product feel "nice to have" even when the execution is good.
wdym ??
would you pay for IndieDeck?
what pivot angle will be worth paying for??
I wouldn't answer either question yet.
The risk isn't choosing the wrong pivot.
It's becoming confident about a conclusion before you've earned it.
noted, thanks
Glad it resonated.
One thing I'd keep watching is the difference between finding evidence and deciding what evidence should actually change your mind.
Founders often collect more signals than they need, but never define what would genuinely justify committing to a direction.
