Market Research

Two ways to find something worth building: what people are reporting as problems, and what this country is paying foreigners for. Both are ranked; neither is combined into the other.

  • OverviewBoth signals, and where they agree
  • Reported demandWhat people are reporting as problems
  • Import substitutionWhat the country buys from abroad
