What this evidence does not show yet

Only one independent item so far. One voice is a signal, not evidence of recurrence — treat this as a lead to investigate, not a validated need.

To reach Corroborated we still need:

2 more independent post(s) — we have 1
the same need restated in another source family, or by 3 different authors

Scoring summary

Evidence confidence = strength × evidence volume × source diversity × payment × competition × trend × 10. Counts use independent content items; only first-hand pain, current spend, explicit willingness to pay and concrete feature requests affect the score. Repeated posts by one author are discounted. Scoring and status changes follow deterministic rules.

“Payment-backed” means first-hand payment evidence exists in the record. It does not mean the business is worth building. “Fading” is a recency tag shown alongside any evidence level, not a lower level. Read the full methodology.
