Sounds good. Thanks for the suggestion!

Maybe I should just launch first and iterate like PG says!

I used to do exactly that! Too many startup validation stories messed around with the way I do things, not sure if it's right or not.

Is it always a good sign when investors invest or show interest in a product? Asking this because I got shortlisted for an interview in a fellowship program. (They invest in my startup if I get selected, they shortlisted around 20 applicants)

I'm building a tool that lets creators build a website with no code, engage with their audience, monetize content, and own their data. By "Own their data" I mean creators can export all their data and self-host it on their servers. Trying to act as a bridge between Web2 and Web3 technologies by getting non-tech savvy creators on board now and gradually move all their data (like articles) on a blockchain.

I'm targeting content creators. Trying to solve the media deplatforming issue. The problem reaching out to my audience regarding this is that majority don't realize all their audiences are the ones they've rented from the social media platform they're on. So I end up telling them the issue and how my solution is what they need for long-term sustainability. I'm not sure if that's the right way to validate my idea.

Agreed! I've been trying to reach out to content creators, but the problem is they mostly ignore since they get so many such requests. That's why I wanted to know how you get over it when your distribution is bad. Thanks for the suggestions!

I haven't read this book yet, just went through the summary in the link. Seems to be useful though, thanks for sharing!

I typed out my idea on a Notion page, did market research, existing competitors, and all that. It looked quite promising to me. I included a small demo on my landing page as well. Maybe I should try reaching out to people with a better functional prototype. Thanks for the suggestion!
