We re all builders here, which usually means at some point we looked at something clunky, slow, or frustrating and thought, there has to be a better way. Most products don t start with a grand vision; they start with irritation, curiosity, or firsthand pain.
I d love to learn more about how others here have navigated that journey:
How did you uncover the problem you decided to work on? What signals told you this problem was worth solving? How did you validate (if at all) whether people would actually pay for a solution? Has your product stayed true to the original problem, or did it evolve into something different? What surprised you the most along the way?
I'm building something to solve a problem my family faces every single day, and I'd love your feedback.
The problem:
Every household has someone carrying the invisible mental load of meals. It's not the cooking that's exhausting it's the deciding. 21 meals a week. Remembering who eats what. Knowing what's in the fridge. Figuring out quick meals for busy nights.

Alexey here. Like many of you, I have a "public" email for my SaaS. And like many of you, my morning routine used to start with 20 minutes of deleting:
"Quick question..." (Sales pitch)
"Partnership opportunity..." (Link exchange)
"URGENT INVOICE" (Phishing)
I calculated I was spending ~70 hours a year just triaging spam. That's two weeks of dev time lost. Existing filters (Gmail, Outlook) work after the email hits my inbox. I wanted something that stops it before.
CoreSight: AI consulting team that builds financial models, presentations, and benchmarks like McKinsey would, minus the 500K price tag. I'd love to hear your feedback on CoreSight and also see your product with its super short description.
Hi PH community! I've been working on Neon Runner. Someone who tested it said it's 'very polished' and has 'zero friction to play'. I'd love to get more feedback from you guys! Play it here: https://glow-dash-chase.lovable.app What's your high score?
I just launched WeezIQ, an AI customer support agent that learns from website content and answers visitor questions automatically.
For founders who ve already solved support at scale: does this actually feel useful, or would you expect more control before trusting it in production? I d really value honest feedback.
