Core Entities

Signals

Raw pain signals collected from public sources. Each signal represents a single data point (a post, comment, review, or issue).

• source_type — which platform or category it came from
• url — permalink to the original content
• content — the raw text of the signal
• collected_at — when the signal was first seen
• cluster_id — which cluster this signal belongs to (if any)

Gaps

Market gaps derived from clustered signals. Each gap represents a coherent problem area with enough evidence to be actionable.

• title — the gap title (what to build)
• description — expanded description of the problem
• category — high-level category
• gap_validity — how confirmed the gap is
• heat_score — calculated heat score (0-100)
• opportunity_score — estimated market opportunity score
• created_at — when the gap was first identified
• status — active, stale, or resolved
