Seems you have everything beside idea. I have a file on my laptop that I keep collecting all ideas I believe might be of a value eventually once I get to your comfortable situation (team + financials). The one idea I like especially is Uber-style but nothing to do with taxis. Huge potential. But I don't want to share it with everybody here. Too bad you removed contact email address from your profile; I could just send it to you.

#202Are there no problems in any of your personal lives? No healthcare issues or financial needs?

#203Send an email to justin@nugget.one
I'll give you free access to nugget. We have over 500 SaaS startup ideas in there.
You probably won't find your final idea but it's very inspiring stuff.
Skimming through that much stuff can help spark or grow ideas you were previously thinking about or you can think through the ideas in another business domain.
Of course, there are just some great ideas in their own right and you might pick one of those.

#205My search results for "cola subscription service" is still disappointing.
You can get a beer of the month and a wine of the month subscription, how about colas from around the world?
Less regulatory mess too.

#206Got a number of quite specific ideas and capital, but not a team to work on them yet. You should provide a throwaway email address and we can connect, or just email me at temporarythrowaway930@gmail.com. Couple of ideas regarding decentralization ( where it makes sense and not just as a buzzword ).

#208Based on your team I would build an AI driven contact manager to send email/reminders/calender/schduler that hooked into slack and facebook using bots to issue commands.

#210My suggestions: 1. Don't sell to techies. i.e. ignore any ideas about software testing, cloud base load testing, etc. 2. Pick a solid business domain you know really well. There is no substitute for domain expertise. Sometimes things that look really simple are actually mindblowingly complex. And vice versa. But it sounds like you don't have that so... 3. Do something in HR Tech. Every single company on earth compete…
I have an idea related to recruiting, but cannot figure out how to bootstrap the project with products (aka developers). I have a few ideas related to HR, so I like this suggestion. Solve problems.
Good luck! Even within recruitment there are many subfields, e.g. hiring developers has almost nothing whatsoever to do with hiring baristas to work in your cafe.
So much goodness waiting to be tapped!
