Also, keeping an eye on what’s happening around the community helps a lot. I usually skim through updates on https://mongoltechnews.com
just to understand where the energy is shifting—new grants, events, or even which problems people complain about the most. Those things quietly guide you toward ideas that have real demand instead of just looking cool on a pitch deck.
If I had to give one final tip, it’s to practice “small validation loops.” Release tiny features, test them with actual users—your friends aren’t enough—and be ready to throw away ideas fast. That mindset alone saved us months of going in the wrong direction.
