About

Most good solutions start the same way: someone notices a problem worth solving. Every day, people run into little frustrations and think, "There has to be a better way." Most of those moments disappear as quickly as they arrive.

I think they're worth collecting.

Someone Solve This is a growing collection of real problems submitted by real people. Some are small annoyances. Others reveal bigger gaps in the way products, services, and systems work. Individually, they're just observations. Together, they become a map of unmet needs.

Over time, I expect patterns to emerge. When enough people describe the same problem, it's probably worth taking notice. I'll share those patterns with builders, researchers, and anyone looking for a problem worth solving.

If you've ever thought "someone should really fix this!" well, that thought belongs here.
