Chalk Ideas — validated business ideas, scored daily from public sources

Market intelligence for builders

The market is already telling you what to build.

Chalk Ideas reads public sources every day — funding filings, hiring threads, repos, regulation, and news — and turns that signal into validated, scored ideas you can actually act on.

The problem

The evidence for what to build next is already public.

It’s just buried across filings, threads, and repos that nobody reads together — so most people build on hunches. We connect the dots, every day, and hand you the ideas that survive a live-web check.

What you get

Ideas you can trust enough to act on.

01

Validated, not vibes

Every idea is grounded against the live web before it reaches you — competitors, novelty, and the gap each leaves open.

02

Three lenses, one signal

Each finding becomes a business to start, a project to build, and a career move to pursue.

03

Fresh every day

A new scan lands daily; ideas accumulate, recur, and earn a track record over time.
