DEMAND CONFIDENCE

REPEATED ACROSS 10 PROJECTS

Related friction appears in 10 independent repositories. This is stronger than one backlog item, but still requires direct user validation.

Project strength and demand confidence are measured separately.
SOURCE EVIDENCE

Start with what users actually said

Reporter context: Problem Currently if someone publishes something by accident they need to: Log into the designated platform (e.g. instagram) and delete the post manually Copy the "published" post to edit it and publish again This leaves a ghost published post in the trypost database.

MARKETING VALIDATION LENS

Recruit: Recruit people running a current campaign, channel or content workflow—not people reacting to an idea pitch.

Guardrail: Measure completed workflow, time saved or a real distribution commitment; do not treat clicks or compliments as proof.

01 · Product Capability workflows

Write the problem hypothesis

For [specific user], completing [job] is difficult because [missing capability], causing [measurable consequence].

You can name one user, one situation and one measurable consequence without proposing a feature.
02 · EVIDENCE INTERVIEW

Interview five marketers or growth operators

  • When did you last need this?
  • What outcome were you trying to reach?
  • What did you use instead?
  • How often does this occur?
  • What commitment would prove it matters?
At least three people independently describe the same painful workflow with recent examples.
03 · MINIMUM TEST

Run the smallest experiment

Deliver the outcome manually or with a narrow prototype before building a reusable feature.

A user completes the real workflow and commits time, data, distribution or budget to repeat it.Measure completed workflow, time saved or a real distribution commitment; do not treat clicks or compliments as proof.
04 · DECISION GATE

Make a build decision

  • Build: repeated pain and active commitment
  • Narrow: pain is real but the audience or job differs
  • Stop: weak frequency or no behavioral proof
Do not let GitHub engagement replace direct validation.

Why this brief exists

Information has value only when it changes action. This page turns one public signal into a bounded validation exercise. It is a research aid, not proof of demand, investment advice or a product recommendation.
