We built IdeaMine to answer a simple question: what should I build?

After scraping and analyzing 1.3 million App Store reviews across 3,744 apps and 25 categories, we've uncovered patterns that most indie hackers never see — which categories are bleeding users, where the pain points cluster, and which app ideas have real market pull.

This blog is where we'll share what we're finding.

What to expect

Category deep-dives — granular analysis of specific App Store categories, backed by real review data
Opportunity breakdowns — the apps and niches where user frustration is highest and competition is lowest
Indie hacker strategy — how to pick, validate, and ship ideas that have a shot at real revenue

We're not guessing. Every insight comes from actual user reviews, scored and ranked by our analysis engine.

More coming soon. In the meantime, explore the data yourself.
