Honestly, I would NOT recommend paying to build an app to test desirability, or gain validation.

My advice, start at your core business assumption (or hypothesis) and figure out a way to test it. This should be the crux of the business idea and if you can’t validate it, the business would fail. For example, Zappos. Their critical assumption they needed to prove was “people will buy shoes (online), WITHOUT trying them on first.” At the time this was unheard of, trying on the shoes was a core part of consumers behavior when buying shoes.

When you’re ready to test out your idea, look into no-code solutions. Or other scrappy ways to work the “product” in the background. Like maybe you have people fill out a TypeForm, match them in the background, and then send them a calendly link.

Only when you’ve outgrown your no-code/scrappy MVP, should you look for outside development.

15-20k$. I am sure it could be made for cheaper if you know the right people.

I need advice. I met an amazing guy on a dating app. We talked for 4 months and most of the convo was sexual. I fell so hard for him and it was because when we met up in person he was so kind, caring, and respectful towards me. He never initiated conversation with me first, but if I messaged him, he would respond back immediately. Then after 4 months he ghosted me on the app we were talking on. I texted him and he told me he had a gf. I am completely heartbroken. What kind of behavior was this?

Need recommendations for a robotic vacuum that can navigate hardwood and carpet on same floor level. Mop would be a nice-to-have.
