Joking aside, VCs want founders to build something people want. We built this because we knew that we wanted it ourselves. In fact, initially we only built it for ourselves (as a fun weekend project), but as we shared it with more people, they wanted it too. At the end of the day, if you build a great product that people love, the rest can often take care of itself
