Public Demand Signals for Indie Developers · 1 Year
Building solo and not sure where to start?
Check public demand with posted budgets before guessing
Writing code isn't the hardest part — the hardest part is spending months on something nobody wants. Idea Miner distills recurring common demands from public outsourcing tasks with posted budgets, tracking mention frequency, median posted budget, and trends to help developers discover potential software opportunities (note: posted budgets do not equal completed transactions or payments).
