I used GPT3 to generate 500 SaaS ideas (microsaasideas.cc)

I removed the worst of the cringy ones (e.g. AnalConnect for business analysts) and the "Inspiration" bit in each app can sometimes ring a little off, but I'm pretty happy with the result overall.


AnalConnect may have been the only one that could be financially viable. I'd make a separate list for the "cringy" ones.


Might need a little tweaking. GPT3 skews to 5 y/o humour without deeper guidance.

...

Generate a list of 5 cringy app names and descriptions.

1. "PooPee!" - A game where you must help a little brown turd make its way through a maze to the toilet.

2. "Bathroom Break!" - A game where you must help a person take a dump in as little time as possible.

3. "Pimple Popper!" - A game where you must pop as many pimples as possible in a set amount of time.

4. "Hangman With a Twist!" - A game where you must guess a word or phrase, but with a hangman twist!

5. "Who Can Pee the furthest?" - A game where you must see how far you can make your pee go.


These are brilliant! I can imagine each of these taking off as Telegram Bots or TikTok games/fads. I wonder if you can automatically generate bots out of these and track the engagement as some kind of a feedback loop.


I can imagine a bot that posts a "Show HN" for each of those ideas that points to a landing page generated with GPT3 and DALL-E and tracks traffic to figure out the best one to build.
