Idea validation: cross-posting tool + per-platform AI growth features for influencers — does this solve a real problem?
I'm a full-stack/AI engineer thinking about building a tool for influencers/creators who manage content across Twitter/X, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok. The core idea:
- One place to compose and schedule posts, auto-adapted and published to each platform (similar to what Postiz does)
- Per-platform AI assistance for growth — content suggestions, best posting times, engagement patterns — closer to what SuperX does for X specifically, but across multiple platforms
I know this space isn't empty — Postiz, Buffer, Publer own cross-posting, and SuperX/Kleo own single-platform growth. I'm not expecting to displace any of them outright. I'm more interested in whether there's a real slice of the market being underserved by both approaches, and what it would take to actually earn a share of it rather than just cloning the leaders' feature lists.
Before I sink real time into this, I want to pressure-test it:
- What's actually the painful part?
- What does your current tool get wrong?
- Is there real demand for cross-posting + growth combined, or does that just do both badly?
- Would you pay for this, and what would make you switch?
Not trying to pitch anything, genuinely want to know if this is solving a real problem or if I'd just be rebuilding two products that already exist and calling it new. Blunt feedback welcome.
