How do you validate if people will use your product? 🙄
As markers, we all fall in love with the products that we are building. We can't stop obsessing about the next cool feature we want to add. 😮💨
The hard reality kicks in when we finish working on it and start promoting. 😅 This makes me wonder about the importance of validation at a low-cost stage. How does the community at PH validates their ideas before they jump into execution?
Personally, I have liked the old-school 1:1 user interviews. Maybe it also stems from my background in Product Management. What has worked for you guys? 💬

As you were a product manager, there will be nothing new for you that qualitative (the 1:1 and other deep studies) and quantitative (more general but still helps a lot) research helps. However, sometimes use cases are completely different from what you've expected, and I believe the iterative approach is the best.

Squaredle is a word-building game where players have to swipe and connect letters on the grid to form correct words. The word should have at least 4 letters. The goal of the game is to find the final word. https://wordpuzzles.io/squaredle

The best way to validate if people will use your product is to conduct user research. This includes gathering feedback from potential users through surveys, focus groups, interviews, and usability testing. This allows you to gain insights into what people think about your product, what features they would like to see, and how likely they are to use it. Additionally, you can use analytics to measure user engagement and determine if people are using your product.
