VERDICT

Should I use IdeaProof.io?

Test your startup idea free in 120 seconds. AI validation score, TAM/SAM/SOM, competitor SWOT and an investor-ready plan. 90 free credits, no card. - ideaproof.io

Depends. Worth spending the free 90 credits on a rough sanity check; do not pay. Zero verified reviews and an unverified 89% accuracy claim make the €19.99–€99.99 tiers a bet, not a buy.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 14 public sources; independent coverage is thin and most volume is the product's own SEO pages.

Gotchas - check before you buy

high

Accuracy unverifiable — no published accuracy report as of August 2026 despite the claim.

medium

Used credits non-refundable; a botched run burns paid credits with no recourse.

medium

Founder publicly asking how to find early users; product is clearly pre-traction.

low

Pro validation costs 20 credits per report; 90 free credits is roughly four reports.

Pros and cons

  • 90 free credits, no card required
  • Full validation report in about 120 seconds

Cons

What users say

No independent user reviews exist — G2 lists zero verified reviews, and the Reddit presence is the founder's own post.

Free 90-credit taster is fine; paying is a gamble on a zero-review tool with an unverified 89% accuracy claim.
