Raven – The harness of harnesses, built for RSI: SKIP, 45/100 | Ideas Lab

A specialized harness designed to address repetitive strain injury for creative professionals.

The pain

Repetitive strain injury affects many creative workers who use harnesses or wearable tools, but the specific pain points are not clearly articulated.

The gap

There is a potential gap for a better-designed harness targeting RSI, but the current idea lacks detail on how it improves on existing solutions.

Build angle

Building this product likely requires hardware design and ergonomic expertise, which may be challenging for a solo founder without those skills.

Strengths

Focus on a real health issue (RSI) in a niche market
Potential to improve comfort and productivity for creative professionals

Risks

Unclear problem definition and customer demand
Vague product description and differentiation
Hardware development complexity and cost
Uncertain willingness to pay and market size

Fly Labs Method

Is the pain real, is there a gap, is it the right time, can one person build it.

45

Problem clarity: 40
Solution gap: 50
Willingness to pay: 45
Buildability: 45

The problem of RSI is real but not clearly defined here, the solution is vague, willingness to pay is uncertain, and buildability is moderate given the niche hardware focus.

Value Equation

Dream outcome and how likely it feels, against the time and effort it costs.

40

The value proposition is unclear and the target market is not well defined, making it hard to assess potential revenue or growth.

One-Person Business

Curiosity pull, identity fit, and a path from free value to paid for a solo creator.

35

The idea lacks clarity on customer pain and competitive advantage, limiting its potential to scale or attract investment.

Viral Frameworks

Hook strength, shareability, and how cheaply it can be tested.

40

The concept is too vague to evaluate product-market fit or business model viability effectively.

Builder Lens

Evidence the problem exists, timing, defensibility, and a model that fits on a napkin.

30

The idea is underdeveloped with insufficient detail on user needs, market size, and execution plan.

Five lenses, one composite. How scoring works

The angle

Building this product likely requires hardware design and ergonomic expertise, which may be challenging for a solo founder without those skills.

Every CEO and CFO change at US public companies, live from SEC

Built this solo. It watches SEC filings for executive and board changes, extracts the data, and shows it in real time. 2,100+ changes in the last 30 days. The comp data is interesting: average new CEO total comp is $8.4M across 284 appointments. The /explore page is fully open, no login needed.

µJS, a 5KB alternative to Htmx and Turbo with zero dependencies

I built µJS because I wanted AJAX navigation without the verbosity of HTMX or the overhead of Turbo.It intercepts links and form submissions, fetches pages via AJAX, and swaps fragments of the DOM. Single <script> tag, one call to `mu.init()`. No build step, no dependencies.Key features: patch mode (update multiple fragments in one request), SSE support, DOM morphing via idiomorph, View Transitions, prefetch on hover, polling, and full HTTP verb support on any element.At ~5KB gzipped, it's smaller than HTMX (16KB) and Turbo (25KB), and works with any backend: PHP, Python, Go, Ruby, whatever.Playground: https://mujs.org/playgroundComparison with HTMX and Turbo: https://mujs.org/comparisonAbout the project creation, why and when: https://mujs.org/aboutGitHub: https://github.com/Digicreon/muJSHappy to discuss the project.
