How PainBase works

listen → cluster → surface
01 / LISTEN

We never stop scraping

Workers continuously pull posts & comments from Reddit, Hacker News and forums where people vent about unsolved problems.

02 / CLUSTER

AI groups the noise

Every post is classified, de-duplicated and clustered by embeddings, so 230 separate rants become one quantified problem.

03 / SURFACE

You get the brief

For each problem, the AI writes a summary, scores demand & competition, and suggests a product angle you could actually ship.

Your next idea is already a complaint.

Thousands of people are describing problems they'd pay to fix. PainBase hands them to you, validated and sorted.
