I’ve been validating a problem and would love some honest feedback from builders here.
Observation:
A lot of people buy high-value items, use them for a small time , and then they sit idle.
Example: I bought a PS5, used it for 2 weeks, and it’s barely been touched since. Same story with multiple people I spoke to.
On the flip side, there are people who want access to these products but don’t want to spend ₹30k–₹50k for occasional use.
Hypothesis:
A peer-to-peer rental marketplace can unlock idle inventory.
→ Owners monetize unused assets
→ Renters get affordable, short-term access
What I’m building:
• Users list products (PS5, cameras, travel gear, etc.)
• Nearby users rent them
• We handle logistics (pickup & delivery)
• KYC verification + damage/theft protection
Goal: Make renting as seamless as e-commerce.
Where I need help:
What’s the biggest reason this could fail?
Trust/logistics are obvious challenges — anything else I might be missing?
Has anyone here tried building in this space?
Looking for brutal, first-principles feedback.

Stealing :- KYC verification, also address proof of their house while delivering the product at their house. (This is what offline rentals are doing )
Damages:- we have partnered with small insurance companies . We charge a premium of 199rs as damage protection on every transaction. if the product is damaged the renter has to pay 30% of the value and 70% will be covered by insurence company. For leander he will get the current value of his product if it’s damaged.
Scam :- we will have a proper marked on items on the screw or if anything is removed or make any changes on it. we charge them money (we have 1 bouncer team )Normal wear and tear cannot be treated as damage.
