Pain Point
1

Runaway Costs & Zero Budget Controls

Mentioned in 12+ threads. Emotional intensity: Extremely High.

Users are “burning tokens” with zero visibility into costs. API bills balloon to $100s–$750/month from heartbeat cron jobs alone, and there are no built-in spending limits, per-agent budgets, or alerts.

“OpenClaw has zero cost controls built in. No per-agent budgets, no token caps per request, no spending alerts, no daily ceilings. It'll happily burn through whatever your API provider allows.”

u/Bright-Intention3266 in r/Moltbook

“Even using Sonnet, just BURNS my tokens $25/50USD on nothing but a few commands and no real output; it's INSANE. Can't get a handle on it.”

u/robdih in r/openclaw

The dirty secret nobody talks about: most people running agents 24/7 either aren't checking their bills yet, or are about to get a very unpleasant surprise.

Pain Point

Security Nightmare: Backdoors, Malware & Data Leaks

Mentioned in 15+ threads. Emotional intensity: Critical.

The agent ecosystem is riddled with security failures. Bundled backdoors, 800+ malicious skills in the official marketplace, and 135,000+ exposed instances. Users are uninstalling within hours of setup.

“The #1 most downloaded skill on OpenClaw marketplace was MALWARE... it stole your SSH keys, crypto wallets, browser cookies, and opened a reverse shell to the attacker's server.”

u/anthonyDavidson31 in r/cybersecurity

“I installed it over the weekend and then within a few hours uninstalled it and revoked all access. Shit is a disaster waiting to happen. No thanks.”

u/TheRagingRobot_ in r/technology

Current agent frameworks are widely perceived as “fundamentally insecure.” Users are asking for guardrails, sandboxes, and kill switches just to feel safe running basic tasks.

The Setup Paradox: Power Users Struggling With Basics

The people who want AI agents most are the ones being scared away by the setup.

Non-technical users, the exact audience that would benefit most, are blocked by “weeks of work,” “setup nightmares,” and documentation that “assumes everyone is a 250882 IQ savant.” Some are literally offering to pay strangers for help.

“This has taken like 30-40 hours of constant back and forth, debugging, having the agent tell me it's working when it's not working.”

u/ElmangougEssadik in r/openclaw

“Can I pay someone to do this setup for me? Or together with me. DM me.”

u/Appropriate-Bit-9457 in r/clawdbot

There's a massive unmet demand for simplified onboarding. Users don't need more features, they need someone to make the existing ones actually accessible.

SOUND FAMILIAR?

The Old Way vs. The ValidSaaS Way

Before ValidSaaS
  • ×20+ hours manual Reddit searching
  • ×3 vague ideas (maybe)
  • ×"I think people want this"
  • ×Build → launch → crickets
After ValidSaaS
  • 3 minutes, one query
  • 12 ranked opportunities
  • "147 users said this exact pain point"
  • Validate → build → customers

Market research is too long, too boring, and too subjective.

ValidSaaS fixes the process so you can focus on building.

THE PROCESS

From Reddit Noise to Validated Ideas

Three steps. Real data. No guessing.

01HARVEST
Reddit Harvester
r/SaaS

“Spent 20 hours manually searching Reddit for pain points... found 3 solid ideas.”

r/Entrepreneur

“Built features before validating demand. Wasted 4 weeks on something nobody used.”

r/startups

“Most founders skip research because the process itself is broken.”
