Honestly, if you do not have kids yet, I would start this venture as a side project. Renting a VPS is dirt cheap. Put up a landing page with your pitch and an email signup that connects to one of the main transnational email providers which is also a dirt cheap service.
Buy the book Running Lean and adapt the sample script to your product/industry then go do some customer development interviews. Be very careful not to pitch your solution. Focus on learning from people you think will be your customers. What are their pain points / problems.
Create a grid of all your answers from all your interviews and see if you can spot a pattern among the problems.
Make some adjustments to your landing page to reflect the keywords used when they discussed their problems.
Take it from there, it is a low risk approach that will save you a ton of time and effort.
