Thanks for sharing this. it's a super useful link. I hadn’t seen Canvid until now, but I think an AI-powered screen recorder is exciting. It’s a great tool for content creators and educators who want smart editing and automation.
Honestly? I'm working on one and I'd be hesitant to share because it's such a competitive space. Finding the problem is not that hard but creating a defendable moat is.
You're right; execution and defensibility are much more important than merely having an idea. One thing I’ve learned is that a good moat often comes from distribution, community, or even data feedback loops more than tech itself.
I now focus less on what no one has ever done and more on what people have done, but can be improved for a specific group. Niching down creates natural defensibility.
I Would love to hear more about your approach to building a moat if you're ever up for a brainstorming session!
Sewer AI (https://www.sewerai.com). But it predates LLM things.
AI apps from Intel, some are solving real world issues: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ai-pc/showcase.html My favorite is Canvid: AI powered screen recorder.
