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.

Sensitive File Sharing Control

Sensitive documents leak or spread through screenshots, forwarding, and uncontrolled external sharing, while security controls create friction and workarounds.

In their words

When 2 or more people need to look at the same file at the same time, we have to gather around 1 computer. This DOES NOT WORK when one office is 45 miles away.

I'm looking for something that keeps all the latest approved assets in one place with permisions so the sales team stops pulling the 2024 brand deck

r/AskMarketing on Reddit

I want to create "playbooks" for my coaching clients and publishing in a notebook format like UpNote would be the best possible way to do this

r/freesoftware on Reddit

I also need to look into file locking that they don't edit the same files at the same times.

r/editors on Reddit

The only important thing missing is an office suite so I can edit my docs on the go.

r/hetzner on Reddit

when I upload a file it wont share it with them? Seems one-sided

r/PropertyManagement on Reddit

I saved my own copy in Sharepoint with my suggestions

r/sysadmin on Reddit

r/sysadmin on Reddit

Seems like it will push me to run two laptops: one university, one personal.

r/Professors on Reddit

user management with LDAP integration is a must

r/NextCloud on Reddit

I physically cannot fix our vision systems becuase I cant load the backup since they arent networked and I cant use my USB to SATA adaptor.

r/PLC on Reddit

can I block certain people from seeing the contents on certain excel sheets but allow them to see others?

r/excel on Reddit

Woke up to 20,000 files in cold storage and the only user facing remedy is to manually restore each file one at a time.

Hacker News

I send PDFs for basically everything at work and the "same link updates" thing alone would fix so many wrong-version situations.

Product Hunt

IT admins and business teams

Where they talk

  • r/sysadmin
  • r/googleworkspace
  • r/gsuite
  • r/sharepoint
  • r/CMMC
  • r/technicalwriting
  • r/Office365
  • r/selfhosted

Tools they use today

  • SharePoint
  • Google Drive
  • OneDrive
  • maipdf
  • Dropbox
  • Microsoft 365
  • Nextcloud
  • Microsoft Teams

Why those fall short

  • users ignore guidance and prefer browsing via Explorer or saving own copies
  • duplicate copies, meaningless names, random sharing permissions
  • only works on Office files, not other important data
  • no granular external-sharing policy; huge jump from no security to too cumbersome
  • no simultaneous editing, no videoconferencing, rooms limited
