Ask HN: How to validate a SaaS product?

9 points

10 years ago

I am building a SaaS product with a friend that I think will be very useful for people who browse the web and businesses who generate traffic to their websites. How do I validate that I am solving a real problem and people will actually pay for it?

Edit: Sorry for being vague. Find the link to the product we are working on below. So the value proposition is everyone is browsing web and want to follow and keep themselves updated on different interests but there isn't an efficient way to be updated on a particular event. It may be anything. Be a phone launch or when stripe atlas opens LLC registrations. Our product enables you to create links for each of these events and embed them on your site or service to which users can subscribe to with their emails. The website owner will then send updates to that event subscribers regarding only that event. In doing so, website owners keep the users who would otherwise close the tab and never comeback interested in part of their offering and keep them in the loop and users who browse the web can keep track of only what they care without giving away their identity.

* Find the embed script under settings

PS: Please be forgiving I am sharing an internal prototype.
