It's basically an app that allows people to get into class action lawsuits where like, let's say you drank Pepsi and then there's a Pepsi class action lawsuit.

You could sign up so that when it's settled, you get like 10 bucks or 15 bucks.

How do you spell it?

C-L-A-I-M.

It actually got taken off the app store, unfortunately, but they made like a million dollars in their first 30 days of launching.

That's a great question because I think a lot of people always ask like, oh, how do you come up with ideas?

The first question I always get when I tell someone about Cal AIs, how do you come up with that?

And everyone's trying to think like, I want to come up with these huge ideas.

How can I do it?

I think that a better, like learning how to come up with ideas

That is a skill, but I think the more important skill and the better skill is a framework to validate what is a good idea.

Because you could come up with ideas all the time, but you need to know, okay, which ones are good, which ones are bad, so you could filter through really quickly.

And the way that I validate them...

I think it needs to be a little bit different for everyone, like, because it depends on your skill set.

I validate good or bad ideas that are good or bad for me, like stuff I'm interested in, stuff I think I could kill and like really blow up.

And so for me, I look for ideas that I know are very marketable.

They can go super viral.

And I look for things that I've personally experienced, have some firsthand experience with, or I know people that are experiencing it.

So I know who I'm building for very specifically.

And I've seen enough companies where I can have an idea like, okay, this company that's adjacent to this one, to the idea I have.
