Launch week: every idea card is free.Get Pro

SaaS ideas, mined from what people actually complain about.

Every idea comes from real Reddit posts, was researched against today's competitors, and survived an independent skeptic before it made the list.

Application Screening Overload

Hiring teams drown in high volumes of unqualified or noisy applications, making it hard to find and screen qualified candidates efficiently.

In their words

I decided that I need to do some advanced skills testing before hiring the next one.

r/LawFirm on Reddit

a lot of portfolios and reels are a mix of projects done solo and with a team

r/MotionDesign on Reddit

We use an expensive survey service for our references and it's awful. Not just because it's expensive, but it's labor intensive for references to complete.

r/humanresources on Reddit

Nine candidates. Not one was close. Either they wanted a coordinator role or they had the resume and none of the judgment.

r/ExecutiveAssistants on Reddit

several candidates can look equally capable in interviews, but they still cannot see who will keep doing the hard parts of that specific role once the new-job shine wears off

r/startups on Reddit

i post something vague and then spend six weeks sorting resumes that look fine but tells me nothing

r/Businessowners on Reddit

I do need to test people on basic skills in the hiring process.

r/smallbusiness on Reddit

if your entire job is hiring for technical roles, at least put some basic effort into learning what these things actually are

r/sysadmin on Reddit

We interviewed 22 candidates and no one is fitting the Role.

r/dataengineering on Reddit

we’ll hire a candidate and then a few months later the team will come to us and say the new hire isn’t working out and we’ll have to fire them

r/recruiting on Reddit

I hate to say “I’m sorry but sponsorship is not available for this job” over and over. I’d say 1/10 applicants meets the residency requirement.

r/recruiting on Reddit

it will slow me down to train them more then they will add any value

r/managers on Reddit

their ATS black-holes >50% the resumes because it's filtering heuristics are garbage

Why those fall short

  • questionnaire is its own interview, too long and redundant
  • HR keyword screening bypasses qualified candidates and passes unqualified ones
  • Recruiters lack framework for partial or equivalent matches; keyword lists miss synonyms
  • keyword garble hides real skills; AI screening misses unqualified candidates
  • location field unreliable; ATS geotag only partially helps
