I think I've stumbled on usable HQ before. Why do you think it was just annoying pain? The pain Project management software solves is huge I think, also evidenced by the gigantic competition in that space.

I have a similar experience with making the same mistakes everyone warns you about. Actually, I've experienced them first hand at building my own product (a file sharing platform for small businesses). Then, I've experienced them in the startup I've been working for a year (today is my last day) and tried to nudge the founders in not blindly following their vision. Alas. Confirmation bias is a huge problem.

I think Patrick Mackenzie said before "no startup ever said they spent too much talking and selling to customers".

Focusing on strong pain and talking and selling to customers is what's on my mind for my next products.

Good luck with pitcher.io!
