World Solve — A living repository of problems worth solving.

What World Solve is

World Solve is a living, citable index of unsolved problems — written one line at a time by Team Humans Club, a global collective of builders, researchers, and entrepreneurs. We do not solve the problems here. We Democratize Innovation.

For builders Skip the search for a problem worth your time. Browse a vetted, growing list and start where the gap is real.

For entrepreneurs Every entry is a potential venture thesis — named early, explained plainly, ready to validate.

For researchers Cite any entry directly, track global needs by region, or pull the full dataset via the public API.

We don't know whether there's a maximum theoretical limit to how efficiently any sorting or searching algorithm can ever perform, regardless of future computing advances.

Some lower bounds on computational efficiency are proven for specific tasks, but a fully unified theory covering every possible algorithmic problem remains unresolved. This unresolved question shapes the outer limits of computer science.
