Apps people already asked for, vetted before a line of code.
PITA finds “someone should build this” posts on Reddit and Hacker News, puts every promising one through four strict, auditable gates — novelty, feasibility, commercialization and ROI — and then builds and launches the ones that pass.
Four gates, hard numbers, no hand-waving.
Builders don't lack ideas. They lack a cheap way to know, before writing code, whether an idea is already solved, buildable in days, and worth the effort. Each gate extracts real numbers before anything gets built.
Novelty
Is it already solved? Live competitor searches kill duplicates before any build cost is spent.
Feasibility
Can it be built in days, not months? Build weeks and complexity are estimated up front.
Commercialization
Would people pay? A real price and revenue model are proposed for the idea.
ROI
Is it worth it? A deterministic calculator must show payback within 18 months.
A separate rules engine decides pass or fail from those numbers, not from the AI's opinion, and every verdict cites the exact rule and number behind it.
Transparent where other idea tools are a black box.
Plenty of tools scrape forums and hand back one AI score. PITA's edge is the rules engine you can see, question and tune.
Auditable, not opaque
Every verdict cites the exact rule and the exact number that tripped it, with a full audit trail per idea.
Tunable without a redeploy
Thresholds, cost scenarios and even each gate's reasoning are edited live in the browser, with a sandbox to test any idea.
Iterates, not just rejects
Refine a rejected idea and get a fresh, re-researched verdict in under a minute instead of a dead end.
Ships a pitch, not just a verdict
Every idea that clears all four gates gets an auto-drafted press release the moment it qualifies.
Proven on itself
We ran PITA's own pitch through Gate 1. It failed, and that sharpened exactly where we stand apart.
Built, not just scored
Qualified ideas become real apps with their own sites, billing and support, like the ones below.
Real verdicts, not illustrations.
Voice memo → client proposal generator
Found a named, live competitor doing this exact workflow within two searches. Killed before any build cost was spent.
Weekly digest bot for volunteer HOA boards
Estimated $12,000 to build, $18,000 first-year revenue and an 8-month payback, well inside the 18-month bar.
PITA, evaluated by itself
Flagged five live competitors that scrape and AI-score ideas. We took the signal: our moat is the transparent rules engine.

Each one cleared all four gates and is live (or in beta) with its own site. Pick one and sign up.

The market
Small, focused software products are one of the fastest-growing corners of SaaS, and PITA applies the same payback discipline to every idea it ships.
Directional industry estimates, not audited research.
