Reddit Demand Mining Tool

A tool that automates the Google site:reddit.com 'is there a tool for X' search pattern across hundreds of niches to surface unmet product demand signals daily.

01 THE IDEA

Greg manually searches Google with 'site:reddit.com is there a tool [niche]' to find users begging for software that doesn't exist. This process is valuable but tedious if done manually across dozens of niches. The business idea is to productize this research workflow into a daily feed of demand signals extracted from Reddit, organized by niche, with upvote counts and comment sentiment scores.

The product could be a SaaS dashboard or even an email newsletter. It sits in the intersection of market research and idea generation. Monetization: $29-99/month for founders, VCs, and product teams. This is meta to the video itself — Greg's own ideabrowser.com is a partial version of this, suggesting strong personal conviction in the category.

Low build cost, high automation potential, and a passionate niche audience with clear willingness to pay. Direct competition from IdeaBrowser means differentiation on depth of analysis matters.
