Looking for a startup ideas that solve real-world problem (not hype)

​

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to build something meaningful, but I don’t want to create another random AI wrapper or copycat product.

I want to find real pain points — problems people face daily that are frustrating, expensive, or time-consuming.

My goal is to build something that:

\- solves a real problem

\- has strong demand

\- can scale big

\- and ideally works globally

I’m especially interested in:

\- consumer pain points

\- creator economy

\- education

\- productivity

\- small business problems

\- hidden opportunities in social media platforms like Instagram/WhatsApp

If you’ve noticed any problems in your life, business, or industry that still don’t have a good solution, I’d love to hear them.

Even small frustrations are welcome — sometimes the best startups start there.

Would appreciate raw, honest insights.

Thanks.

Looking for people who actually want to build something

Anyone else feel like they're surrounded by people with zero ambition?

I'm 17, just finished 12th grade, and I don't want the next few years to disappear doing nothing.

I want to build things.

Startups. AI. Apps. Robotics. Websites. Tools. Communities. Anything that's genuinely interesting and has the potential to make an impact.

The problem is... it's surprisingly hard to find people my age who actually want to create something. Most conversations end with "that would be cool" and nothing ever happens.

So here's my idea.

I'm putting together a small group of ambitious people (roughly 16–19) who want to learn, experiment, and build together.

You don't need to be cracked at coding or have some insane résumé.

If you're into:

  • Programming
  • AI/ML
  • Robotics
  • Design/UI
  • Video editing
  • Marketing
  • Writing
  • Research
  • Or you're just obsessed with learning...

...you're welcome...

The goal is to surround ourselves with people who push each other, ship real projects, learn fast, and stop waiting for the "perfect time."

Worst case? We learn a lot, build a portfolio, and make ambitious friends.

Best case? We build something incredible.

If this sounds like you, drop a comment or DM with:

  • Age
  • Country/Time zone
  • Interests/Skills
  • What you've always wanted to build
  • How serious you are (1–10)

Let's build instead of just consuming.
