Most devs build products. Fewer validate them first. I was guilty of this, too.
After seeing the same pattern repeat, great execution, wrong market, I built <a href="http://ideation.biz" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">ideation.biz</a> to solve it.
Here’s what it actually does (technically):
You input your idea. The system runs it through a multi-step AI pipeline that pulls in market data, competitor signals, and business model patterns. What you get back isn’t a generic summary; it’s a structured analysis broken into discrete modules:
• Problem/solution fit analysis
• Market sizing (TAM/SAM/SOM)
• Competitor intelligence
• SWOT breakdown
• Customer segmentation
• Risk and monetization models
• Go-to-market strategy
• Financial projections
Three depth tiers, Basic (10 credits), Standard (35 credits), and Advanced (75 credits), depending on how deep you want to go.
The output is structured enough to use in a pitch deck or investor call, not just a wall of AI text.
What I found interesting about building this: the hardest part wasn’t the AI. It was designing the prompt chain so each module feeds context into the next, so your competitor analysis actually informs your GTM, not just sits next to it.
Starts at $1. No business plan needed. Works in under 5 minutes.
Feedback welcome, especially from devs who’ve validated (or failed to validate) products before. What did you wish you had?

A developer built ideation.biz, an AI-powered market validation tool that analyzes startup ideas in under 5 minutes. The tool runs ideas through a multi-step AI pipeline producing structured analysis across modules including TAM/SAM/SOM sizing, competitor intelligence, SWOT, customer segmentation, risk models, go-to-market strategy, and financial projections. Three depth tiers are available starting at $1. The builder notes the key technical challenge was designing a prompt chain where each module feeds context into the next rather than producing isolated outputs.
