Most existing validators are for digital tools and saas, this tool is for physical products. The tool allows you to fill out a short form for your idea, and get accurate information for manufacturability, uniqueness, margins, competition and IP risks. It speeds up initial research and give clear direction for where to start. I've been a physical product designer for a long time so this is made from a physical product standpoint. It's free to use right now, and doesn't store data (or ideas).
Hi I'm Dan, a physical product designer with experience in the consumer and footwear industries.
I made productvalidate because I've always wanted to create my own products. Initial research and validation is crucial and it can take a while to get to the point of knowing if you should pursue the idea or not.
Most existing tools are made for digital products and software, so this tool is focused around validating physical product ideas and providing direction for how to start - giving a picture of moq, manufacturability, margins, ip risk and competitors.
Really interested to get feedback, it's free to use right now. It's in a basic stage and doesn't store (or steal) any ideas.
