Show HN: I built a fun way to learn why startups succeed/fail 1 guess at a time

I’ve been studying real-world SaaS ideas some that worked, some that didn’t. To make the learning more fun (and a bit addictive), I turned it into a side project: Startup or Flop.
Each round gives you two real startup ideas. One worked, the other didn’t. Your job is to guess which is which. After each guess, you get the actual outcome and a short explanation of why it worked or didn’t.
It’s a quick, easy way to:
Hone your product sense
See patterns in startup success and failure
Challenge your own assumptions and biases
Surprising, humbling and kinda fun. Let me know if you have wild startup stories (win or fail) I’d love to include them!

Would love to hear what you think, especially if you’ve built something or are in the early stages of a project.
