Why not just use ChatGPT?
You could. But here's what you'd be missing.
| ChatGPT | IdeaProbe | |
|---|---|---|
| Data freshness | Training cutoff (months old) | Real-time (24h old) |
| Competitors found | Guesses from memory | Actual apps with live ratings |
| Review evidence | Imagined quotes | Extracted from real reviews |
| App Store Guidelines | Outdated policy data | Checked against latest Review Guidelines |
| Verification | "Trust me" | Multi-source cross-reference |
| Time investment | 2-4 hours of prompting | 2 minutes |
4+ hours of manual research. Or 2 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Honest answers. No marketing fluff.
1Is my idea safe with you?
Yes. We email you the report and delete everything within 24 hours. No human ever reviews your submission—the entire analysis is automated. Your app idea exists only as a temporary database record that self-destructs.
2How accurate is the revenue estimate?
Our estimates are conservative ranges based on competitor performance, not promises. Treat them as directional signals to help you assess market size. Actual revenue depends on your execution, marketing, and differentiation strategy.
3What data do you analyze?
We analyze App Store and Play Store listings (rankings, reviews, ratings), Reddit discussions for pain points, and competitor review sentiment. The analysis covers market saturation, user demand signals, and competitive positioning.
4Do you cover both iOS and Android?
Yes. Every validation includes cross-platform analysis. We examine both App Store and Play Store data to give you a complete view of the mobile market for your niche.

Since reports are delivered instantly and data is deleted within 24 hours, sales are final. That said, your first report is completely free—try before you buy. If something goes wrong with a paid report, reach out to contact@ideaprobe.io and we'll make it right.
6How long does it take?
Analysis typically completes within minutes. You'll receive an email with your PDF report as soon as it's ready. No waiting days for manual research—the entire pipeline is automated.
