Roast my idea: Research assistant for founders, empower you validate and conduct user-research with ease.

Hey all, I just wanted to get some feedback and honest thoughts. As I’ve just recently launched a landing page and am trying to get a better understanding of the problem space. Link to landing page here: simpliux.com

A solo-founder like many of you, I have made many attempts at building a successful Saas product in my past and miserably failed all of them. It can be painful but it's very rewarding. My day job is product design/user-research and I wanted to build a product that assisted fellow-founders in this process.

The problem:
Early-stage founders struggle to find product-market fit as they are unsure how to conduct user-research and validate their product. I personally can find this process very ambiguous and confusing to navigate without a framework to direct me.

Idea:
Our product is an AI-powered Assistant that empowers early-stage & first-time founders to validate their idea and conduct user-research with ease. Features would include:

  • Personalised strategies to optimise how you conduct research and validate your idea.
    -Generative AI tools that assist with research and validation.
    -Tools to help you define and structure your research-approach.

We currently offer free research AI-tools that include: Research strategy, MVP strategy, research question generator.

Let me know your honest thoughts and would love to hear the challenges you are currently facing. Appreciate it (:

    Interesting stuff, Liam! We've been doing a lot of user research and product discovery over the last months. One thing that I can definitely recommend you is Teresa Torres' framework and book "Continuous product discovery" if you don't know it yet.

    It's bee super helpful to us and maybe you find a smart way to integrate and leverage it in your UI assistant - would definitely make us curious to explore it :)
