Using this as the basis for a SASS offering for the e-commerce industry might be interesting… how to pack a box most efficiently in order to save on materials and shipping costs

A 'house doctor'. Perhaps a subscription service where someone routinely (annually?) inspects your home for potential issues before they become a bigger problem: termites, roof/gut…
