Hello HN, I'm bad at picking startup ideas. I built a lot of stuff no one used. So I thought I'd build a site where people can pay for an idea before it's built.
You don't need to create some fancy landing page or something. Just describe the idea.
If people pay before an idea gets built, it's probably a big positive sign. It means the idea is big enough of a pain point. If not, this website will be a graveyard of ideas that didn't work.
If this doesn't work I'll take it down in a week.

For example I'd love something like this to upload my video game trailer too, but I don't think showcasing the game I'm building is really all that well served by your current format. I can imagine similar examples for music
