Definitely a good question! Short answer - I have a strong idea, but nothing concrete yet.

I've started this whole journey with a problem-first mindset.

In the first 2 articles, I chose a problem and a niche:

As a remote product or engineering leader in tech, it's hard for my team to develop personal connections with teammates distributed across time zones.

Over the next 2 weeks I'll set my product vision and share specific requirements for an MVP. I'll scope an MVP that I can build in a month or less.

The landing page today is vague - I was hoping the problem and potential outcomes would resonate with potential users, with the goal of collecting and qualifying early waitlist sign-ups.

So far I've had 50-60+ signups, but hard to say how serious they are.

As an aside, I've found interesting ideas which then inspire me with tangential ideas on sites such as:
