Close to ₹0, using free tiers
Who you sell to
Customers in India and abroad
First version
One person can build it with AI tools
What it is
The tool collects discussions from chosen communities, filters them by niche, picks out posts where people describe a problem, and groups similar ones. For each group it writes a short summary and a few business ideas. Users see results on a simple dashboard, and paid users also get a weekly email of ideas, a score based on how much people engaged, and more niches. The free level gives three ideas a week in one niche. It is built with Python, the Reddit API and an AI model, and a first version can run on free hosting.
The problem it solves
People who want to start a business but lack an idea often copy whatever is trending on social media. Real demand shows up in the complaints people post when asking for help, but nobody has time to read thousands of threads. The tool does the reading and sorting for them.
Who it suits
- Developers or no-code builders who like data projects
- Creators who make business idea videos or newsletters
- Aspiring founders who research before building
How it makes money
- Free tier with three ideas a week
- Paid plan at ₹499 a month for unlimited niches and idea scores
- Annual plan at ₹1,499 a year
- Paid newsletters, affiliate links and access for coaches through an API
How to test it this month
- 1Read threads in two communities yourself, write ten idea summaries by hand, and send them as a free weekly email to see who replies.
- 2Build the simplest version: pull posts on one topic, ask an AI model to list the problems, and show the results on a basic page.
- 3Ask your first 20 subscribers what they would pay for, and open the ₹499 plan only to those who say they would use it weekly.
What to watch out for
Reddit's terms and API rules decide what you may collect and sell, so read them before building and ask a professional. Complaints are not proof that people will pay, and an AI summary is a starting point only. Idea tools also lose users quickly, since most people need ideas for a short time.
Costs and prices are estimates from our plan, not results from a real business. Nothing here promises income.
