## About Build or Skip

Build or Skip is a product research and market validation tool for builders, indie hackers, and SaaS teams who want better evidence before committing to a new idea. Many people start by collecting ideas from social media, competitor lists, or personal intuition, but those signals can be noisy. Build or Skip gives builders a more practical research workflow by ranking candidate products with estimated monthly orders, order growth, and repeat activity, so a team can compare opportunities before spending months on design, engineering, and launch work.

The product is designed for the early decision stage. A user can look at product opportunities, compare momentum, and decide whether an idea is worth building, should be watched for later, or should be skipped. This makes it useful for solo founders, side-project builders, startup studios, and small SaaS teams that need a fast way to screen markets. Instead of treating every idea as equally promising, Build or Skip helps users ask sharper questions: Are people already buying similar products? Is demand growing? Are orders concentrated in a one-time spike, or is there repeat activity that suggests a healthier opportunity?

Build or Skip focuses on demand signals rather than vague inspiration. Its rankings and filters help users spot products that appear to have real order momentum, then use that information as a starting point for deeper research. The tool does not replace customer interviews, landing page tests, or domain expertise. It gives builders a structured way to decide where to spend that research time. A team can use it to build a shortlist of promising categories, watch competitors over time, and avoid ideas that look exciting but show weak commercial traction.

The workflow is simple: discover product opportunities, review the estimated order and growth signals, compare options, and then choose what to build, watch, or skip. The product is especially relevant for people working on SaaS ideas, digital products, AI tools, marketplaces, and other internet businesses where early market validation matters. It can support brainstorming, competitor research, product positioning, and prioritization discussions before a roadmap is finalized.

Build or Skip offers a free preview so builders can explore the concept before upgrading. The paid plan is intended for users who want deeper product research and ongoing validation support. Overall, Build or Skip helps makers reduce guesswork, focus on ideas with stronger market signals, and make calmer decisions before investing significant time into a product that may not have enough demand.
