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 Power BI Development

Power BI developers struggle with manual, error-prone work across modeling, governance, migration, deployment, and AI-assisted development.

In their words

Replacing two A4 SKUs and two dozen PBI pro licenses ($12,000/mo) with $500-1500/mo of miniscule expenses.

r/PowerBI on Reddit

is there anyway to stream from 1 computer each separate schedule screen to each tv using a wired setup?

What software are people using to bring saved search results into PowerBi/Excel? I’ve seen a few options but they’re around $4,800.00.

r/Netsuite on Reddit

Each and every dashboard I build includes visiting Flaticon/Icons8, looking for the correct icon, downloading it, recoloring according to the theme, fixing the SVG manually

r/BusinessIntelligence on Reddit

there's no way to physically port dashboards across the different analytics tools

r/tableau on Reddit

We currently have around 150 Tableau dashboards used by 1,000+ users

r/databricks on Reddit

Is it worth (essentially) maintaining 2 "semantic model" across Databricks and power BI.

r/databricks on Reddit

Has anyone dealt with similar performance issues where the bottleneck turned out to be Power BI/Gateway rather than the data platform?

r/dataengineering on Reddit

one team actually took down the power bi service application for the entire business for 2 days

r/dataengineering on Reddit

DAX generation from prompts works fine for basic measures but starts falling apart once you get into anything with nested CALCULATE or relationships across multiple tables.

r/MicrosoftFabric on Reddit

I use it to verify Power BI reports are still good after publishing them.

  • r/PowerBI
  • r/MicrosoftFabric
  • r/databricks
  • r/excel
  • r/tableau
  • r/BusinessIntelligence
  • r/snowflake
  • r/analytics

Tools they use today

  • Power BI
  • Excel
  • Microsoft Fabric
  • Power Query
  • Tableau
  • Databricks
  • SharePoint
  • Claude

Why those fall short

  • no reliable local backup or undo for report changes
  • Report changes can't be auto-deployed; conflicts and rollbacks are hard
  • AI breaks reports, lacks training data, acts beyond instructions
  • all app pages sit under the same URL; navigation panel is limited
  • unclear Git integration and benefits over low-tech SharePoint approach
