Research on an idea.
Hey everyone,
I'm a 21-year-old college student in NJ, originally
from India. Planning to fly back in a week to spend 3
months building a startup full-time. Before I commit
to this and burn months of my life, I want real data
on whether the idea has demand.
The idea: an app where premium restaurants in your city
sell their end-of-day surplus food in "surprise bags"
roughly ₹179 for ~₹500 worth of food. You preorder,
walk over to pick it up between 9:30-11 PM, get a
mystery bag of whatever didn't sell.
One Indian startup (DabbaDeals/Surokki) tried and shut down after 100
days, so the path isn't easy.
I made a survey which takes less than 3 minutes to figure
out:
- Whether real demand exists in Indian cities
- What the biggest objections would be
- Whether the pickup-only model works here
This the link to the survey (PLEASE HELP):

Brutal answers welcome. If you'd never use this, I want
to know that. If you would, even better. Either way,
the data shapes whether I build this or kill it.
Will post the aggregated results back here in 2 weeks
once I have enough responses.
Thanks for the time 🙏
