- Exclude saturated categories (generic supplements, dropshipping basics, print-on-demand basics)
- Each idea must include a "Validation Signal" (e.g., Reddit thread with 100+ comments, keyword with 500+/mo search, 3+ competitors missing a feature)
- Format each idea as a structured profile
</constraints>
