Imagine a community of business intelligence analysts, or a different community of data scientists, maybe another one of accountants, or a separate one of structural engineers. Each online community is invite-only, and you can talk about your trade, new/interesting solutions, and the problems you have with your software and tools. I think conferences and associates often fill this void for many industries, but it'd be cool to have a "realProblems" site that's focused.

I think this is a more viable (and beneficial to society) product than the generic RealProblemHunt site that is presented to us. The generic site is, in my opinion, vulnerable to the Dunning-Kruger Effect. A more focused tool like this could help professional communities prioritize problems within their field in a public way.
For example, a similar product for game developers might prioritize fixing game monetization. A "global" board like the one presented here would likely never prioritize such an idea.

Great idea. Based on the feedback and suggestions we gathered, we're now planing to split the site into different categories or at least focus in a specific community of people first.
