Your day is full of hidden startup ideas. Scratch helps you find them. Every frustration, small inconvenience, or “there has to be a better way” moment is a potential business. Scratch is the idea journal and AI engine that turns your real-life pain points into organized, shareable startup ideas. How it works: Prompt Roulette – Answer a daily mix of smart questions that uncover problems hiding in your day. Take Notes – Capture details, thoughts, and examples as they happen. Your notes are saved in “My Notes” and can be downloaded anytime. AI Idea Generator – Turn your notes into startup or product ideas instantly. Organized by Category – Browse ideas in neatly grouped categories for inspiration or action. Export and Share – Share one idea, a whole category, or your full collection in a tap. Why Scratch? The best startup ideas don’t come from brainstorming in a vacuum — they come from living the problem. Scratch makes it easy to capture those problems in the moment, distill them into startup concepts with AI, and keep them organized until you’re ready to build. Whether you are: A founder hunting for your next big thing A content creator looking for fresh angles Or someone who wants to think more creatively about their world Scratch turns everyday friction into endless opportunity.
