I just validated my own database full of potential SaaS opportunities from 150k analyzed negative reviews on G2 by building a product off of it and getting my first sale!

Hey everyone! Recently I analyzed over 150k negative reviews across 8000 companies on G2 to find specific improvements that can be made on existing software from these negative reviews that can potentially be made into a competitor for existing SaaS.

I then used AI to analyze the negative reviews and find user problems and to provide potential improvements to the existing software that was being reviewed for you to create a competitor or even a simple plugin.

I knew negative reviews would highlight problems that users would have that weren't solved yet, so I created this application for myself to find potential SaaS ideas and I separated this opportunities by categories and by companies.

I shared some of the problems and a few people were telling me to make an application around it, so that's exactly what I did!

But to take it a step further and make sure that people know that these SaaS opportunities were helpful and validated, I took an idea and made it into an application.

I built something called Promptsion, which is an AI Search Assistant chrome extension right inside of your browser.

Here are the features:

  • It transforms any webpage into a personal AI research assistant.
  • You can get instand answers and prompt optimization without leaving your tab.

3-Click AI Research:

  • Select text, click the extension and get immediate AI-generated responses.
  • Eliminates the need for copying, pasting, or tab switching.
  • The AI understands highlighted text and uses it as context to provide relevant answers.
  • Instant AI responses in under 5 seconds.

ChatGPT Folders:

Organize ChatGPT chats with color-coded folders

  • Allows you to have infinite folders and infinite chats
  • 3 ChatGPT accounts can be linked (they can all be free accounts!)

Prompt Optimization:

  • Transform basic prompts into optimized AI prompts that are clear and concise for better results
  • Quick prompt engineering so that you can get the best results with AI without leaving your tab

In the database itself, many suggested the feature for ChatGPT folders, which wasn't being implemented. So I built it and....well I got really unlucky because the day after I finished ChatGPT implemented Projects....BUT IT WAS ONLY FOR PRO.

So what I did was I made it so that each account can have 3 ChatGPT accounts that are free to be linked, and it's way more simpler.

The 3-Click AI Search was also an issue as many were tired of highlighting text, copy and pasting and opening ChatGPT up for simple answers that they want integrated into their browser, so I just implemented that feature as well.

As a web developer, when coding using AI such as ChatGPT I hate having to prompt engineer, and its so important to have good prompts or the results will be really bad from the AI wasting time. People were also facing that issue so I added a popup that allows you to highlight text and optimize the prompt so that you can get actual good results.

------

FINALLY, after 3-4 days, I got my first sale on Promptsion, and this validated my database to a lot of people as it started to bring in more sales for BigIdeasDB (where you can find the G2 negative reviews) bringing my review to around $7k.

If you’re building (or improving) a SaaS, this database might save you a ton of guesswork!

and...if you want to solve all of the small features that you have that are lacking from ChatGPT because they want money from the Pro version, check out Promptsion.

TL;DR
- Built my own database full of potential SaaS opportunities by scraping 150k analyzed negative reviews on G2
- Validated my product by building a product off of it and getting my first sale on it
- Product is an AI search assistant right inside of your browser + tons of other features
