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 still haven't proven whether it's possible to construct a complete and general theory predicting the exact number of distinct solutions to any well-defined combinatorial puzzle.

Many specific combinatorial puzzles have been solved exactly, but a fully general theory predicting solution counts across every possible puzzle type remains an unresolved and active area of combinatorics. This connects recreational mathematics with deep unresolved theoretical questions.
