Reddit Pain Point Miner
Scans public Reddit discussions, clusters repeated complaints, and ranks them into buildable product opportunities for founders and product teams.
The problem
Builders repeatedly ask for a way to find real user pain instead of guessing ideas; several public tools and posts show ongoing demand for turning Reddit complaints into validated opportunities.
Proposed solution
A niche-search engine that monitors chosen subreddits, extracts recurring complaints, clusters them by theme, scores severity/frequency, and exports ranked opportunity briefs with source links.
Target audience
Indie founders, product managers, solo builders, and startup researchers
Key features
- Subreddit/topic scanner
- Pain-point clustering
- Severity/frequency scoring
- Evidence links to posts

An idea is a starting point for research. Validate customer demand before building.
