If you’re stuck, stop trying to create something completely new. Start by exploring idea databases — like IdeasOrbit.com/ideas — where dozens of startup ideas are already organized and easy to browse. Not necessarily to copy them, but to train your brain to recognize patterns and opportunities.
As you scroll, pay attention to:
- Which ideas make you think, “I could do this better”?
- Which ones feel outdated or limited to a certain region?
- Which ones could fit a niche you understand deeply?
Every idea can be a starting point. Maybe someone built an app for freelancers — you could make one just for designers. Maybe there’s a subscription box for coffee — what about one for local teas?
The goal isn’t to find something completely new. It’s to find an angle or twist that matches your skills, your audience, and your market.
