In this episode, we dive deep into the process of finding validated startup ideas from Reddit using AI tools. I share my 4-step process and demonstrate how to use www.gummysearch.com/community to discover trending subreddits, identify problems and solutions, find creators in the niche, and create content that resonates with the audience.

1) Use Gummy Search to find trending subreddits

• Focus on 10k-100k member communities
• These answer the "why now" question
• Look for niches where you have an unfair advantage
• Pro tip: Check daily/weekly/monthly growth trends

2) Analyze subreddit for problems & solutions

• Add chosen subreddit to a Gummy Search "audience"
• Examine "pain and anger" section for common patterns
• Check "advice requests" for what people are asking
• Review "solution requests" for competitive landscape
• Key: Look for recurring themes and write them down!

3) Identify creators in the niche

• Use Perplexity.ai to find top influencers
• Search YouTube for their most popular videos
• Read comments to understand audience needs
• Do this for 20-25 videos to get deep insights
• This helps you think like your target audience

4) Wireframe your solution

• Based on insights, sketch out your product/service
• Use tools like Framer to quickly prototype
• Come up with a catchy, relevant name
• Example: DesignScientist.com for conversion-focused design

5) Bonus: Creating content that resonates

• Use Gummy Search's "top content" feature
• Analyze what performs well in the community
• Ask AI about content preferences (e.g., "Do they love memes?")
• Remember: Treat AI tools as your "entrepreneurial assistant"
