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.

Manual FP&A Spreadsheets

FP&A teams waste time on error-prone manual spreadsheet forecasting, reporting, and data reconciliation instead of analysis.

In their words

The problem with our Excel at the moment is that it requires a lot of manual revisions and consumes a lot of time.

r/FPandA on Reddit

our annual planning and budgeting process is very time-consuming and challenging, since each profit center requires a different approach

r/FPandA on Reddit

We currently are using adaptive for forecasting / budgeting etc. Renewal coming up soon - just wondering what others are using?

r/Netsuite on Reddit

its getting clean, reliable numbers into it without a bunch of manual cleanup that takes the time

r/CFO on Reddit

I've decided on my strategy... and do not want to constantly have to re-select it.

r/Optiml on Reddit

Really need an ace modeler. Probably opportunity for other task as well.

r/private_equity on Reddit

now we're not beholden to NSPB, which as it turns out, can't handle all of the customization that we needed

r/Netsuite on Reddit

None have been feasible and just became too complex or slowed the workbook to a crawl.

r/excel on Reddit

every time my business changes I end up rebuilding formulas and adding another sheet

r/excel on Reddit

I obviously have to start from the top and re-enter in all my inputs before I run the system job to recalculate the CPU.

r/Accounting on Reddit

Need to have forecasting abilities by month. Sage only has 5 budget versions so I do quarterly forecasting now.

r/Accounting on Reddit

Having spend and yield data in one place feels like it should surface something useful there.

r/Ramp on Reddit

fast output only earns trust in an IC meeting if every number is defensible. How does R0Y handle showing its work?

FP&A teams and analysts

Where they talk

  • r/FPandA
  • r/Accounting
  • r/excel
  • r/CFO
  • r/Netsuite
  • r/workday
  • r/MicrosoftFabric
  • r/xero

Tools they use today

  • Excel
  • Claude
  • Power BI
  • Adaptive
  • Power Query
  • Copilot
  • NetSuite
  • SAP

Why those fall short

  • automation promised but not implemented; no bandwidth to build it
  • inconsistent source data and changing reporting requests break automation
  • manual brute forcing; models break without un-automated data engineering
  • SAP plugin not allowed to connect; no budget for EPM; IT blocks new tools
  • Not allowed to connect to any database because SOX; no budget for new tech.
