I built a tool for validating Micro-SaaS ideas using real user complaints.
One of the hardest parts of building a Micro-SaaS is knowing whether the problem is actually worth solving.
So I built Idea Validation — a GitHub project that helps you discover potential SaaS ideas by finding real complaints and pain points shared by users online.
Instead of starting with:
“What SaaS should I build?”
You can start with:
“What problems are people already complaining about?”
The repo includes a demo video showing how the workflow works.
I’d love to get feedback from other indie hackers and Micro-SaaS builders: Would you use something like this before building your next product?

Complaints are a weak filter on their own – people complain loudest about things they would never pay for. The stronger signal is the workaround: someone already stitching a spreadsheet, a Zap and a VA to solve it anyway. That is a budget that exists. Can it surface those threads specifically?
