What kind of products are totally overdone?

Maybe it is only me, but I see certain categories of online products that seem to be like "copy-paste" and the market is overcrowded by them. (and they repeats in the PH charts too often as well)


They are especially these:

  • AI writing tools

  • social media apps (I do not think that something breath-taking can be developed there)

  • productivity apps (trackers)

  • fitness apps

We are in an era when everybody can have some online product or app.


Which online solutions do you think are overrepresented in the market, and vice versa, which ones are missing here and could potentially be a "blue ocean"?



In my opinion, there is a few apps that:

– help you learn sciences (e.g. physics, mathematics, chemistry, law, medicine)

– Parents + kids apps (for common activities)

(But it is only my own perception.)

Totally agree, @busmark_w_nika . Some categories are starting to feel like the rom-coms of the tech world—familiar plot, different actors, same ending. 🙃


As for us, we’re launching yet another doc tool tomorrow… but hear me out.


We didn’t build Artefact because the world needed more docs. We built it because the approvals around them were a flaming mess. PRDs stuck in limbo. Feedback buried in threads. Legal "still reviewing" 12 days later.


So we said: what if Google Docs had a dashboard, a CRM, and a brain?


We’re not trying to be trendy—we’re just tired of watching smart teams lose weeks chasing a green checkmark.


Launching tomorrow on PH. Will it go viral? No clue. But we do know who approved it. 😎


Would love your thoughts!

@royesegal So, what is the exact outcome of the tool? Does it fact-check or?
