That's what I thought I was doing. Seriously. I talked to so many people that had the same problem. Over and over again, throughout the entire process. I've talked prices, solutions, everything with both people I know and people I don't from students to RA's to professors.
The SV cliche of "get cash from them before building" wouldn't wash in this niche and I wouldn't have been comfortable taking money for such an extended period of time whilst creating the product.
Having said that, there are competitors (who I think I have a competitive advantage over) and many OS/free/self-hosted alternatives (still missing the competitive advantage).
I don't know if I just need to get well known (most people in the niche probably don't know we exist) before I can even make a sale or what. Perhaps I need my content to mature?
I just don't know any more.
Thanks for the advice!
