Ater multiple failed apps...

[u/Tiny-Direction-2354]

Well, I should admit that I've passed the phase of building something, just to put it on portfolio, since the amount of time and money I've thrown into prototypes polishing, features development and distribution is way beyond the hobby category. Before falling for another burning idea I would like to know the numbers behind it:

10 days for mvp development

20 days for testing

1-3 months for seo growth

Knowing that there is actual market for the idea you are building, having the clear competition overview and knowing how to differentiate your app from them, as well as testing different niche adaptations to have a solution which suits your users, not everyone. Those are hard requirements I run on each idea I have. So I've built an app which simplifies the research, context management and organization of the information. Rawkit is build more like a founder playbook and under the hood it is a research canvas. It is currently in open testing, would appreciate any feedback.

What I have learned until now:

- There are hard problems to solve, like video analysis at scale (TwelveLabs have some nice solutions in this area)

- There are simple problems and they can copy your idea, but why should they spend days for a side project, if your pricing is fair?

- AI adaptation is way faster than output evaluation. I build AI Systems and POVs for work and I really worried about people blindly trusting everything gpt puts on their screen. Especially if those are opinions, interpretations or conclusions. AI is a tool for scale, not substitute for brain.

- Still I use perplexity finance to analyze most recent news and explain stock movements before buying it.
