How to validate it
- Read the whole thread and note the recurring scenarios — repetition is the density of the need.
- Search existing tools around "clipper / browser" and check which single step they actually cover.
- Put up a one-line landing page, share it back to Obsidian Forum, and see whether anyone asks about pricing.
