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.

Large File Transfer Failures

Users struggle to reliably move, sync, and store very large files and datasets across cloud and on-prem systems without failures, high costs, or workflow disruption.

In their words

Lost like half a week chasing ghost problems because of an app silently touching the audio.

r/WeAreTheMusicMakers on Reddit

Any services that make 1-2tb of data relatively easy to upload and transfer?

r/DataHoarder on Reddit

CloudAlly for Dropbox ~ $350+/mo for 2TB is insane.

r/msp on Reddit

Directors, editors, DPs use Dropbox/wetransfer/Google Drive even though we don’t consider those secure or robust enough for important and large file transfer.

r/Filmmakers on Reddit

They dont want the email, calendar, whiteboards, etc - just simple cloud storage with MFA, that are easy and simple to use.

r/NextCloud on Reddit

Nun kommt ein zweites kleines Büro hinzu und wir möchten die Daten zentral in eine Cloud verlegen.

r/de_EDV on Reddit

uploading and downloading would be a multi-day endeavor

r/videography on Reddit

What app can handle more than 400.000 files?

r/selfhosted on Reddit

Expanding takes seconds. Shrinking safely still feels like planning another outage window, another migration, another weekend.

r/sysadmin on Reddit

A fresh full chain with compression end encyption takes at least 48 hours for the data we have

r/editors on Reddit

Dropbox is saying will still take 1-3 days. My internet also cuts out randomly

If you need to get that footage to an editor or a post house it would take over 2h at max speed.

Hacker News

As a producer I'm forever trying to send multi-GB stem folders to collaborators, and the Drive/Dropbox round-trip is exactly the pain you described.

Product Hunt

IT teams, media creators, sysadmins

Where they talk

  • r/sysadmin
  • r/AZURE
  • r/aws
  • r/zfs
  • r/editors
  • r/NextCloud
  • r/msp
  • r/Drime

Tools they use today

  • Dropbox
  • Google Drive
  • OneDrive
  • S3
  • ZFS
  • Nextcloud
  • SharePoint
  • Cloudflare

Why those fall short

  • no unified file management, no segmentation, stale AD entries
  • Telegram bans programmatic storage; Cloudflare not DMCA resistant
  • Drive and Dropbox still compress on in-app playback; workarounds are hacks clients must remember
  • uploads take days, processing stalls, storage and ownership transfer are a nightmare
  • Hetzner S3 unstable since launch, rarely worked, support replies after months
