About
What Should I Build?
An AI project idea generator for developers who want actionable roadmaps, not vague brainstorms.
Our mission
Every developer hits the same wall: too many ideas, not enough clarity on what to build next. What Should I Build? turns your skills, constraints, and context into tailored project ideas with everything you need to start — stack rationale, MVP scope, phased roadmap, and monetization paths.
What you get
- Ranked project ideas with pitch, stack, and fit rationale
- MVP scope with must-haves and cut-for-later lists
- Phased roadmap and monetization paths
- An interactive workspace with live generation logs
- Auto-generated architecture canvas with validation
- AGENTS.md instructions for AI coding tools
- Live MVP preview powered by v0
- Per-project chat to refine and explore
Who it's for
Indie hackers looking for their next side project. Hackathon teams who need ideas aligned to a theme and time constraint. Engineers exploring career pivots or learning new stacks. Anyone who wants to ship something real instead of endlessly scrolling for inspiration.
How we're different
Most idea generators give you a text dump and send you on your way. We give you a workspace — editable architecture diagrams, agent instructions ready for Cursor, MVP previews you can click through, and chat grounded in your project context. It's the difference between a brainstorm and a build plan.
