If you are an aspiring founder, any VC will ask you this question: “why are you the only person who could solve this”. If you want to generate passive income with your side idea, get ready to enter a crowded market as everyone and their mother is shipping. Unless
you have an active X account or you’re a TikTok sensation distribution is going to be tough.
I just launched the trie.dev microphone beta to help folks find their edge. You yap into your phone about your ideas; Trie turns the rambling into hypotheses, then prioritizes them based on your experience and your realistic ability to distribute in that idea space — surfacing the problems only you can solve. From there you can generate creative and run Meta ads against your hypotheses straight from your phone, with zero setup, to see how real people respond.
I built it initially for myself and friends as an “intake form” for running paid ads to help validate our side gig ideas.
Happy to chat about how it works or the stack. Joining the waitlist will send you an email to join via TestFlight.

To all those who like voice dictation - are you extroverted?
I absolutely hate the sound of my voice, and the thought of speaking my ideas in a public setting and interrupting people gives me a deep sense of anxiety.
I feel like I'm missing out on something when I look at this.
