This is barebones. What we also need is some market analysis and some SWOT analysis. I have been thinking of a crowdsourced website where each startup is profiled under the categories 1) SWOT 2)Market size 3)Competitors 4)what does it take to build MVP.

I think such a site will be valuable

It stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. Basically a matrix of [good/bad][internal/external].

I agree with the need for more analysis.

This site seems to take a MadLibs style of 'product that exists' for 'company type that exists'. Surely there are legitimate results from that, but not without a lot more work.
