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.

Unfinished Store Tasks

Understaffed retail and grocery teams cannot complete stocking, freight, and service tasks within their allotted hours.

In their words

I AM TIRED OF BEING A PUSH/BACKSTOCK SLAVE EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF MY EXISTENCE IN A DEPARTMENT THAT CHANGES ITS LAYOUT EVERY OTHER SECOND

r/Target on Reddit

Pushing to turn a digital indicator green does not translate to merchandise physically set on the sales floor.

r/MichaelsEmployees on Reddit

Anyone else’s warehouse waste an absolute tip that makes you gag when you get close to it

r/tesco on Reddit

Every day I feel like my team is drowning in the workload, and I don’t have time to have conversations regarding performance/attendance, doing the monthly observations, still behind on the FIA trainings

r/Target on Reddit

we could actually set them a lot faster if we weren’t constantly being interrupted by customers asking for help

r/MichaelsEmployees on Reddit

I just can't fathom how I'm supposed to get milk, meat, rework, backstock, counts, gap scans, markdowns and code checks plus the milk and meat loads, plus any priority ones done in 8 hours

r/coles on Reddit

I guess I will be forced to walk back to the MST bay every time I need a broom, tape, screwdriver, etc… So long three bays an hour.

r/Lowes on Reddit

It’s me and one other associate that gets to ring ALL THE TIME. By ourselves too.

r/Aldi_employees on Reddit

we’re stocking nonstop and doing moves almost every night. We’re going over the 8-hour mark and into overtime just to finish stocking and cleaning up.

r/CostcoEmployee on Reddit

We very rarely have a period to just breathe freely much less time to get into the nitty gritty of tasks demanded from the CSR cards.

r/starbucksbaristas on Reddit

Starbucks cannot expect two closers to break down the entire store and clean it and cash out within 30 minutes when customers are still ordering right until close.

r/starbucks on Reddit

There are so many sections and displays that look like a wreck because they've been completely picked over and no one has had time to shelve or bumper box anything

Retail store staff

Where they talk

  • r/Target
  • r/MichaelsEmployees
  • r/HomeDepot
  • r/walmart
  • r/WalmartEmployees
  • r/kroger
  • r/WalgreensStores
  • r/Lowes

Tools they use today

  • Vizpick
  • Sidekick
  • Zebra handheld
  • Compass
  • Ironman
  • PDA
  • Whoosh
  • Zipline

Why those fall short

  • walkie requests go unanswered; no way to summon available staff
  • staffing and task allocation not coordinated with real-time store needs
  • tasks buried, apps crash, slow loading, repeated sign-ins
  • Green indicators do not reflect merchandise physically set on the floor
  • self-checkout still needs staff help; button pulls the only cashier away
