AI Real-Time Cooking Vision Companion
One-Liner
Phone camera watches you cook in real-time, warns you before mistakes happen — oil about to smoke, meat needs flipping, pasta is ready.
Kill Reason
Samsung and Nosh Robotics integrating cameras into kitchen hardware (CES 2026). Low willingness to pay for cooking apps (industry precedent: free). Declining cooking frequency among target demographic. Decreasing need for guidance as users learn (retention cliff).

killed: The Sense Home Energy Monitor and Google Nest already provide appliance-level consumption insights to millions of homes via hardware and platform integration. Utility-side analytics platforms (Oracle Utilities, Itron) serve the B2B market. The Green Button API dependency limits reach to approximately 60% of U.S. utilities, and the incumbents already hold the integrations, brand trust, and hardware relationships needed to serve both consumer and enterprise segments.
killed: Prepaid energy customers are cost-constrained by definition, limiting willingness to pay for a subscription optimization tool, while the utilities themselves hold both the granular consumption data and the regulatory incentive to offer budget management features directly — eliminating the business model for any independent software layer between the meter and the household.
killed: Consumer-grade e-waste scanning apps face a double barrier: individual recyclers don't generate enough volume to justify monetization, and high-value e-waste already has established commercial recycling channels (Sims, ERI, Arrow Electronics) that don't need a middleman app to find supply.
