IdeaRoast Analysis

Q:A markdown editor and converter that lets you write, preview, and transform markdown in real-time directly in your browser.

The Roast

"You've accidentally submitted your Next.js boilerplate README instead of an actual business idea—which is somehow more honest than 90% of side hustle pitches. At least we know you can copy-paste documentation."

đź’€ Why This Fails

  • • No actual product described—just a framework setup. What does markdownme.com even DO?
  • • Markdown tools are saturated hell (Notion, Obsidian, 47 VC-backed competitors)
  • • You haven't validated if anyone wants this or would pay for it

âś… The Pivot

If you've built markdown tooling, pivot to a specific vertical: 'Markdown automation for lawyers' (legal docs), 'Markdown-to-proposal converter for freelancers', or 'Markdown templates for SaaS onboarding docs.' Pick ONE profession, solve their markdown problem obsessively, and sell to them directly.
