Real Paid-Demand Signal for Indie Developers · This Week

Idea Miner distills 'common demand features' from real paid tasks completed on global outsourcing platforms, using hard data on mention frequency, budget size, and momentum to show indie developers: for this direction, someone is already paying real money.
