One-Liner
An independent safety scoring and review service for consumer robots (robot vacuums, lawn mowers) to help consumers evaluate safety before purchase.
AI Thinking Process
Thread 10: Consumer adversarial idea. As home robots become more common, consumers have no independent safety information. A 'Consumer Reports for robot safety' — independent testing and safety scoring.
Frequency trap: buying a robot every 2-5 years. Safety score is a one-time lookup. No recurring revenue model. Revenue model: ad-supported review site? Affiliate commissions? That's a media business.
KILLED — Frequency trap + media business model. No subscription model. Wirecutter and Consumer Reports already cover robot reviews.
Resurrection tried B2B (robot retailers) — Consumer Reports already serves this and retailers have no incentive to highlight safety risks. Confirmed fundamental.
Kill Reason
Frequency trap: consumer robot purchases happen every 2-5 years. A safety score is a one-time lookup, not a recurring service. No subscription model works. This is a media/content business (like Wirecutter or Consumer Reports), not a software product. Incumbent media brands already cover this space.
