OpenMic
Why This is an Opportunity
Comedians are a specific, passionate, growing community (the open mic scene has exploded) with zero dedicated tools. The data model is simple — jokes, sets, venues, ratings — but the insights and the niche make it genuinely exciting. Plus: building for comedians means your marketing can actually be funny.
Key Pain Points
- •Your joke notebook is a disaster of half-finished bits in three different Notes app folders and a Google Doc from 2021
- •You can't remember which jokes you already tried at a specific venue and bombed with
- •There's no way to see your progress over time — which bits improved, which you should retire
- •Setting a setlist for a 10-minute spot means scrolling through chaos trying to remember what works together
Original Discovery
Stand-up comedians track their jokes and sets in the Notes app like animals. OpenMic is a joke workshop tool — write bits, tag them by topic/style, log which jokes you told at which open mic, and track audience reactions over time. See which bits are killing and which need work based on your own ratings across performances. It's basically GitHub for your comedy career, minus the merge conflicts.
