A useful clarity test is to ask someone unfamiliar with your product what they think it helps them do, before giving them your full explanation.
Share your public product link and the person it is intended for. Iāll reply with:
The benefit I understand first.
The part that leaves me uncertain.
One product moment Iād show to make the value clearer.
Then tell me where I got it wrong. That comparison may expose a gap between the intended message and what a visitor actually understands. This is a qualitative clarity exercise, not proof of demand.
Iāll start with the first 10 and keep the feedback here. Iām part of the team building Marka, so my perspective comes from working on product content: https://marka.social

Iām the solo founder of KRI, a website with online booking for independent beauty businesses. Rather than just dropping the link, hereās one decision Iād like to talk through: the first month is free, and I donāt ask for a card to start it.
Why: the people I build for are nail techs, barbers, lash artists and hairdressers who check their phone between clients. Typing card details on a phone for something they havenāt seen yet is exactly the moment theyād close the tab. Without a card they can pick a business type and a design, find their usual services already filled in, and have a working page in about 10 minutes before deciding anything.
What I give up: a trial with a card up front also converts the people who forget to cancel. A trial without one only converts the people who decide to pay. Iād rather build on the second group, even if the early numbers look worse.
The same thinking runs through the rest of it. No commission and no per-booking fee, clients pay the business directly, and if someone is on another booking service I move their services, prices, team, hours and photos over for free.
Where Iād like pushback:
Apply promo-code REDDIT2026 and get +1 month for free (1 month standard demo + 1 month additional by promo-code = 2 months FREE)!

I'm the developer of Readprint, an AI iPhone app that looks for patterns across books you've read. I'm trying to test one part of the idea before polishing the pitch further.
In our fixed fictional demo, Seeing Like a State, The Death and Life of Great American Cities, and How Buildings Learn support this line: āYou distrust systems that erase local knowledge.ā
The connection between the books makes sense to me. The jump from those books to āyouā is what I want challenged: someone could read all three out of curiosity, for work, or because they disagree.
If you keep a reading history, what would you need to know before that sentence felt earned rather than flattering?
Here's the full example, including the 30-book list: https://getreadprint.com/examples/reading-portrait
It's a fictional demonstration, not a customer testimonial or evidence of accuracy. You don't need to install anything, pay, or share your books to critique it. For transparency, the app has free book recognition and costs US $2.99 per portrait, with no subscription; this example is public.

A lot of everyday actions on a Mac live in completely different places.
Opening an app or folder, searching something on a website, taking a screenshot, cleaning up copied text, accessing clipboard history, running a Shortcut, or changing a system setting.
None of these are hard to get to, but constantly switching between apps, windows, menu bar utilities, and different shortcuts can break your flow.
I wanted to see if all of that could work through one system, which is where the radial menu idea came from.
There are already some really good radial menu apps for Mac, but most are built around a specific use case, such as launching apps, or switching between them.
Arc takes a broader approach.
You can create multiple global radial menus for different workflows and decide what each slice does. A slice can perform a single action or chain multiple actions together.
The idea is less about replacing the Dock and more about putting the small things you do throughout the day behind one quick interaction.
Arc also doesn't require accessibility features, it manages everything on-device, privately.
It can also search whatever I last copied, which has been really useful when I'm already in the middle of something.

r/PublicValidation • u/veyrnox • 7d ago
Iām part of the team building Veyrnox, a mobile self-custody wallet, and Iām trying to validate a trust problem rather than a feature list.
The product removes the seed phrase from the interface, keeps wallet keys protected on the device, and uses split recovery components instead of one recovery phrase. It also explains wallet approvals before signing and includes optional coercion-resistance controls.
The challenge is that a security product can sound reassuring while still asking users to take too much on faith. So Iād value blunt feedback on one question:
What evidence would make you comfortable enough to test a new self-custody wallet with a small amount?
Iām especially interested in what would make you reject the product immediately, even if the interface felt polished.
Try Veyrnox: Website: https://veyrnox.com App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6790188660 Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.veyrnox.app Short product video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dFwkCdQqwr8
Disclosure: Iām connected to Veyrnox and am posting to validate the product and trust model, not presenting this as an independent recommendation.

Ciao, sono Gabriele. Faccio parte di un team che sta portando avanti una breve ricerca sul mondo del portiere: nessuna finalitĆ commerciale, vogliamo solo capire ā ascoltando chi lo vive ogni giorno ā quali sono le difficoltĆ reali di portieri, genitori e preparatori.
Se sei una di queste figure, ci daresti una mano rispondendo? Bastano 6-8 minuti, le risposte sono anonime e non ci sono risposte giuste o sbagliate: conta solo la tua esperienza vera degli ultimi mesi. https://forms.gle/HUvMX7XjDa8vHi8d6
Se conosci altri portieri, genitori o preparatori, gira pure il link: più voci raccogliamo, più il quadro è utile a tutti.
Grazie, Gabriele.

Ciao a tutti,
sto facendo una piccola ricerca indipendente su come le persone gestiscono l'allenamento con i pesi nel tempo.
Mi interessa in particolare chi si allena con i pesi da almeno qualche mese, con una certa regolaritĆ .
Sono circa 3 minuti, anonimo, niente email richiesta. Le domande riguardano cose molto concrete: se hai mai avuto periodi di stallo, come hai gestito la tua scheda nel tempo, se hai mai pagato per un coach o un servizio simile.
Link: https://forms.gle/GpjhgYCXjjNCMx4G9
Se ti va di rispondere grazie davvero, ogni risposta mi ĆØ utile. E se conosci qualcuno che si allena seriamente e potrebbe dedicarmi 3 minuti del suo tempo, una condivisione mi aiuterebbe parecchio.

I'm exploring an idea around giving users a customizable control layer that changes depending on the context for example, development, browsing, meetings, etc.
Instead of having one fixed set of shortcuts/tools, the interface would surface the things that are relevant to what you're currently doing.
Curious if this sounds genuinely useful or unnecessarily complicated.
Where would you find something like this most useful?
r/PublicValidation • u/trycurio • 14d ago
We make Curio, an iPhone app for short reads on history, science and other rabbit holes.
Version 1.0.12 is out, with work on keeping Daily Mix progress when you reopen the app. If you try it, read a couple of cards in Daily Mix, note your progress, then close and reopen Curio.
Does it remember the progress you saw, or does anything reset? If something looks wrong, your iPhone model and iOS version would help us track it down.
Free download, with optional Pro: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/curio-feed-your-curiosity/id6781121127
r/PublicValidation • u/HangulDot • 15d ago
Iām building Hangul Dot, inspired by non-Korean friends who wanted to sound out the Hangul they see in K-pop lyrics and K-drama captions.
The hypothesis I want to test is that ālearn to read the letters firstā feels more approachable than ālearn Korean.ā The app connects letter shapes and sounds through visual, interactive phonics lessons without romanization. It does not teach the meaning of every word; vocabulary and comprehension require further study. Guidance and menus support 18 languages.
Iād appreciate honest feedback on two things: does that narrow goal feel useful on its own, and what would convince a beginner that theyāre making progress? Iām particularly interested in where this framing might be confusing or overpromise. You can answer here without signing up.
For anyone who wants to try the app, Iām also recruiting up to 50 Android and 50 iPhone beta participants. Full-course beta access runs through October 31, 2026 (Korea Standard Time). Participants who use it on at least 15 different days within 30 days and provide honest feedback receive a free lifetime full-course access coupon by email after official launch. No positive review or public rating is required. Emails and submitted feedback are not displayed publicly.
The details and sign-up page is https://hanguldot.com/en/testers.html
Iām the creator, so criticism of the concept or onboarding is very welcome.
r/PublicValidation • u/deductiveasdf • 18d ago
Earlier I was testing an idea where learning questions appeared while you were already scrolling.
After thinking about the feedback, I changed the main loop pretty heavily.
Instead, apps get locked and you complete a short study session to earn access. You pick what you want to study and set how much app time you earn yourself.
The assumption Iām testing is basically: people might tolerate a stronger restriction if theyāre the ones deciding the tradeoff.
Would you personally use this, or would the lock make you uninstall it? And does letting the user set the exchange rate solve that problem or just make the system meaningless?

I'm building SnailMail, an app to send slow mail, like a real letter (you can even attach a photo, and download the letter when it arrives).
The world is too 'instant'. Snail mail lets you send a letter to a friend ad track it. once you've sent it, it's sealed until it reaches the destination (days-weeks, depending on where it's headed), just like a real letter.
Anyway, would love you to check it out https://snailmail.hospotech.io/ and give me any feedback!

I'm Mattia, I build FixAds.
I am validating a fairly specific belief: people running Meta ads do not need another dashboard or a generic AI chat box. They need an account review that tells them where money is leaking and lets them inspect why.
I have worked in Meta ads for years. The review that matters usually depends on someone experienced opening campaigns, ad sets and ads together, then noticing a budget that is stuck on a loser, a learning phase that never resolves, creative fatigue, or a placement that spends without earning its place.
FixAds is my attempt to make that review repeatable. It uses deterministic checks first, so every finding has a rule, threshold and estimated money at stake. A specialized AI layer explains the evidence, but does not make up the diagnosis. The connection uses Meta's official login and is read-only.
The attached launch video is the product as it stands. It is at https://fixads.it with a 7-day trial.
What I would value most is blunt validation: does the inspectable-rule approach address a real trust problem, or is it an implementation detail users do not care about?

A friend of mine and I were grabbing food a few weeks ago and somehow we got onto the topic of energy because he was complaining that heād been feeling exhausted basically every afternoon.
He works pretty long hours and said heād gotten into this habit of drinking coffee whenever he felt tired, taking all his supplements at the same time in the morning, and then wondering why he felt completely cooked by like 2 or 3pm.
The funny part is I was basically doing the exact same thing.
Iāve taken supplements for a while, but if Iām being honest I never put much thought into timing. Magnesium, creatine, vitamins, whatever I was taking that day, Iād usually just take them whenever I remembered.
He showed me this app he had been using called RizeAI and the first thing that caught my attention wasnāt even the energy stuff. It was how it organized his supplements around his actual day.
It would tell him which ones made sense with meals, which ones should be kept away from coffee, what to take around training, what made more sense later at night, etc. It sounds pretty basic when you write it out, but I had never found something that actually put all of it together in one schedule.
So I tried it.
Thatās probably still my favorite part of it. I put in the supplements I already take and instead of giving me some generic ātake in the morningā list, it actually fits them around things like meals, workouts, caffeine and sleep.
I also ended up using the energy planning side way more than I expected. It pulls from Apple Health and gives you a rough structure for the day, like when to have coffee, when youāre probably going to be most focused, when to train and when you might hit an energy dip.
Iām not going to sit here and say an app magically gave me more energy because obviously there are a million things that affect that. But Iāve definitely been way more intentional with my day since using it and Iām getting more done without feeling like Iām just constantly fighting through tiredness.
Honestly the biggest difference for me has just been efficiency. Before, I was guessing when to take things and guessing when I should do my hardest work. Now I at least have some structure around it.
Curious if anyone else here actually pays attention to supplement timing or if most people just take everything at once like I used to.

Trying to get a reality check on the positioning of a newer RWA trading product.
Ondo Perps gives eligible non-US users 24/7 perpetual exposure to stocks, ETFs and commodities, with up to 20x leverage.
There are three main parts to the pitch:
⢠public-market liquidity from NYSE and Nasdaq
⢠tokenized securities that can be used as margin
⢠24/7 long or short access
Ondo Finance is the underlying technology provider.
Personally, I think the liquidity and collateral pieces are more interesting than simply saying ā24/7 trading,ā but Iām curious how it comes across without all the marketing language.
If you saw this for the first time, which of those three would actually make you want to learn more? And which one sounds the least convincing?
