BuildScout scans Hacker News, X, Product Hunt, YC, and funding news — then uses AI tuned to your stack to filter out the ideas that would waste your time, before you ever see them. Whatever survives ships with receipts and the honest reason it might fail.
Every run is a pipeline built to reject. Thousands of posts go in. Most ideas get dropped — for fragility, weak moat, or slow revenue — and the few that survive come out scored, scoped, and carrying the honest reason they might still fail.
Pull top posts, launches, and funding rounds from six sources. Meme filters strip the noise before anything reaches analysis.
2,847 posts → 312 candidatesYour profile becomes the lens. Ideas that are too generic, too fragile, or too slow to revenue get cut here — before you ever see them.
312 → 8 dropped fragile · 3 weak moatEvery survivor carries the exact complaint that justifies it, who felt the pain, and the honest condition under which it fails.
10 ideas · receipts + downside attachedDraft → Building → Shipped. Or rejected with a reason. Your ideas become a living record of what you chose and what you walked away from.
private → team → publicEstimated for a solo builder with explicit assumptions. Over 60 hours? It goes to your backlog automatically.
Suggested model, tier structure, and realistic MRR at 100 customers — so you know if it's worth your weekend.
The actual posts, launches, and funding rounds that triggered the idea. Signal you can verify, not hallucinated trends.
What you'll know after shipping that you didn't before. Every build moves your skills forward, even if the product doesn't take off.
Monitors any set of Solana wallets in real time, classifies their trades with AI, and streams human-readable alerts to Telegram or Slack.
Ideas are private by default. Share them with your team, a co-founder, or the world — and follow builders whose ideas you want to see first.
Create teams, invite collaborators, and share ideas into a common space. Roles and permissions included — your drafts stay yours until you say otherwise.
Publish an idea and it joins the public feed — upvotes, comments, and a showcase spot on the landing page. Your profile becomes a living portfolio of what you're building.
Follow builders you respect. Get notified the moment they publish a new idea, mark one as building, or ship. The feed is ideas — not engagement bait.
Someone, somewhere, posted the problem this morning. Run the scout and find it.
