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.

Unmaintained Shared Docs

Teams struggle to create, organize, and maintain shared documentation, causing knowledge loss, onboarding failures, and repeated work.

In their words

Das, was ihr das lesen könnt, ist jetzt schon veraltet und wertlos.

r/de_EDV on Reddit

There were just too many things that slowed me down or stopped me outright that would have been easily avoided with basic documentation/help.

r/projectionlab on Reddit

I can't control the formatting or front matter to create a formal hardware installation guide

r/technicalwriting on Reddit

we tried so many different tools like notion, confluence, GitBook, Document360, etc, never made the full transition.

r/SaaS on Reddit

half of it is completely outdated and no longer works anymore

r/gamedev on Reddit

I have no admin login. I have no idea even what the host name is of the server that hosts it.

r/sysadmin on Reddit

90% of my work seems to focus on detective work and evidence collection, because, obviously, it's the documentation that is being blamed for inaccuracies

r/technicalwriting on Reddit

that's 0.6 FTE on something that isn't our product

r/SaaS on Reddit

It seems they expect me to know and remember the business logic for multiple clients of ours.

r/softwaredevelopment on Reddit

multiple internal wiki pages that are partially outdated and having to string together different articles to get the correct info

r/sysadmin on Reddit

We're sorely lacking in documentation of workflows / processes.

r/k12sysadmin on Reddit

There doesn't seem to be a shared/maintained document to keep track of the current URLs for the different dev, testing, etc. servers and databases.

r/cscareerquestions on Reddit

I still have engineers who are so incredibly lazy that they just don't read the docs at all.

Hacker News

Employees don’t use internal chatbots because companies tend to have low-quality documentation and an LLM is not psychic

engineering and IT teams

Where they talk

  • r/technicalwriting
  • r/sysadmin
  • r/SaaS
  • r/SideProject
  • r/IndustrialAutomation
  • r/managers
  • r/softwaredevelopment
  • r/hermesagent

Tools they use today

  • Confluence
  • Jira
  • Slack
  • GitHub
  • Notion
  • SharePoint
  • Word
  • Excel

Why those fall short

  • Docs describe tools that do not exist and lack code comments.
  • outputs lack values, equations, assumptions and narrative flow
  • documentation missing or incomplete
  • vendor docs are out of date or access is removed
  • official docs are incorrect, stale and lack accountability
