Everything you need to know about Radar validation.
You submit your startup idea through our structured form. We match you with an expert validator who has relevant domain experience. They analyze your idea using real competitor data from product platforms, market research tools, and their own expertise. Within 48 hours, you receive a detailed validation report with market sizing, competitor analysis, red flags, and a go/no-go recommendation.
Our validators are experienced founders, operators, and investors who have built, scaled, or sold companies. They include YC alumni, former PMs at top tech companies, serial founders, and active angel investors. Each expert is vetted and matched to ideas within their domain of expertise.
Every report includes: market size analysis (TAM/SAM/SOM), competitive landscape mapping, target user validation, red flags and risk assessment, a clear go/no-go recommendation, and actionable next steps. Full and Premium plans include additional sections like revenue model assessment and detailed roadmap.
Standard delivery is within 48 hours of submitting your idea. Premium plans include priority 24-hour delivery. You'll receive an email confirmation within 1 hour of submission with your matched expert's profile.
All plans include at least 1 round of revisions. If you feel the expert missed something or want deeper analysis on a specific section, submit your feedback and we'll update the report. Premium plans include 2 rounds of revisions plus a 45-minute strategy call.
Yes. If you're unsatisfied with the quality of your validation report, we'll refund your payment in full — no questions asked. We stand behind the quality of our expert analysis.
We match you with the best-fit expert based on your idea's domain, but you can request a specific expert if you prefer. If your preferred expert isn't available within the delivery window, we'll let you know and offer alternatives.
Experts use a combination of product platform data (traffic, reviews, feature comparisons), market research databases, public financial data, app store analytics, social media signal analysis, and their own industry knowledge and network.
