✅ How to Use This Template

1. Industry column – pick the sector you want to analyze.
2. Pain Points column – list the inefficient, human-heavy, or error-prone parts.
3. Existing Tech column – identify mature technologies from other domains that could address these points.
4. Leverage/Disrupt column – brainstorm how applying that tech smarter or differently could create a competitive advantage.

🔹 Tips for Maximum Impact

• Look for incumbents ignoring software or relying on legacy human processes.
• Focus on software-first, perception-first, AI-first solutions — these often scale faster.
• Cross-domain inspiration is key: take mature tech from drones, AR/VR, logistics, gaming, robotics.
• Safety, regulations, and user experience are often overlooked — fixing these can be a huge edge.
