A comment on State of Independent SaaS [pdf]. Parent comment
A "validated" idea is product that someone will pay their hard-earned money for.
Moreover, the true cost of buying a product, is the actual integration into the current workflows, internal processes changes, etc.
Since most people only change when they must, they will not buy a product even if they approve it and like it.
Hence, before the product is ready, what you getting is only opinions.
And, there is also a scale issue, since to get a statistically significant answer, you would need a large sample.
