Make your goal to become an absolute expert in that space. there are a lot of products that do this already. like, a lot. and they're well funded or have lots of revenue and can definitely muscle you out on almost any paid user acquisition channel. but if you become an absolute expert, you might manage to find some niche or some really obscure unmet need, and you can start there before expanding. in theory. in practice, it's usually better to tip the scales in your favor by choosing a less competitive space. to do that, look for spaces close to things that are changing quickly. new laws, new technologies, cultural changes, etc. It's always easier to ride someone else's wave. best of luck.
