#14I'm finishing a book about what makes products "premium." It's cool because a) many people don't know b) if they did, they could make more money per sale.
I would love to read this when you are ready to share! Do you have a newsletter or some other way to stay informed?

#15Bedtime Bulb (https://bedtimebulb.com/), a low-blue light bulb for healthy sleep. For every purchase, we give healthy lighting to one person in need.
For almost a decade, I've been working on the problem of reducing blue light at night, which could interrupt quality sleep. I started (and later sold) a company that automated Philips Hue lights to change color automatically, but realized that solution was too expensive and complicated for most people.
My latest attempt, Bedtime Bulb, is also the simplest. It's literally a light bulb that produces almost no blue. It's also the right light for the evening: much less eyestrain and a more comfortable feel than competitor's products.
I consider this an MVP but also the solution that's most appropriate for a general market.

#16I have been working on a project called Shareseer. Shareseer was born out of my pain of finding company filings as I was learning about valuation of companies.
Another frustration of mine was reading boilerplate text when I read the company risk section. So I applied some machine learning & Natural language processing to extract the unique risks. The way to access it is to visit https://shareseer.com then search for a company name or ticker. You will find the 10-k/10-q filings along with risks marked as important by our algorithms. Alternatively you can make a query to https://shareseer.com/search?q=NFLX and replace tick with your desired tick. Analyzed Risks are available for the S & P 500. Filings are available for all companies. The other features available are a real time insider transaction feed and a company filings feed:

It would be great if you could give the application a spin. I'm trying to learn:
a) Is this useful to you as an investor?
b) What are your pain points today in your research process?
c) Any other feedback you may have?
I think it’s cool because it allows any investor to improve their due diligence when buying an individual stock. It reduces the gap between what the people on Wall Street know and what the average joe investor knows. The insiders filings are an entire day faster than what major brokerages offer today. The risk analysis is unique too.
