How DemandProof Works

From idea to validation report in minutes. DemandProof scans public demand signals and produces structured reports so you can decide whether to build, pivot, or avoid.

1

Enter your idea

Type in a business idea, niche, keyword, or competitor name. Examples: "AI tool for real estate agents," "lead generation software for dentists," "Shopify review app."

  • No account required to start
  • Works for SaaS, local, agency, and creator ideas
  • Refine your search with niche and signal type filters
2

Scan public signals

DemandProof searches across public sources for signals related to your idea. This includes Reddit conversations, product reviews, feature request boards, competitor pages, and community discussions.

  • Reddit pain points and recurring complaints
  • Feature requests on Canny, GitHub, and roadmaps
  • Competitor reviews on G2, Capterra, and Product Hunt
  • Search intent and buyer language signals
3

Analyze & cluster

Signals are organized by theme, frequency, and strength. Repeated pain points are grouped together so you can see what comes up most often. Competitor gaps are identified from negative reviews.

  • Pain points clustered by theme
  • Competitor gaps from public reviews
  • Demand strength scored per signal category
  • Buyer intent language extracted
4

Generate demand report

The structured report shows you what the public signals say about your idea. It includes demand strength scores, pain point clusters, competitor gap notes, buyer intent indicators, and a clear verdict.

  • Market need score overview
  • Build/pivot/avoid verdict
  • Source-linked evidence for each signal
  • Exportable report format
5

Make your decision

Use the report to decide: build if signals are strong, pivot if the problem is real but your approach needs adjustment, or avoid if public demand is weak.

  • Build: proceed with customer discovery
  • Pivot: adjust your approach based on signal gaps
  • Avoid: save months of development on a low-demand idea
