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

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

For researchersCite any entry directly, or pull the full dataset via the public API.

We haven't resolved whether every possible tangle of a rope, when idealized mathematically, can be untangled using a provably minimal number of moves.

open Mathematics & Logic

Knot theory offers tools for identifying and classifying tangles, but calculating a guaranteed minimal ontangling path for every possible knot remains computationally unresolved. This connects abstract mathematics to physical intuition about rope and cords.
