Brainstormed for about 3 months an idea of a weightlifting gym with a restaurant, since diet and bodybuilding/fitness is very interlinked. Restaurant would've had stuff like a self-blending bar, balanced meals, and either completely for free with the gym subscription, or normally priced food if you're just eating at the restaurant. Sadly, this would require way too much of a human component and wouldn't be as successful in the long run, in my opinion.

asked Chat GPT for some examples and it found lifetime fitness, fitness formula clubs and some others. I confirmed that said chains do have cafes and/or other nutrition services by finding people on LinkedIn employed there.

In any city except NYC people complain you can’t get food 24/7. So a company that can somehow deliver some good food options 24/7

id love a restaurant where you just say what foods you dont like, allergic foods and what foods you like, and what would you like to eat, and they will give u food based on your inputs, so you dont have to choose something in the menu and then wonder if it was best decision, the only problem i see is with pricing

Most of us have some ideas that we never executed and don’t plan on ever executing.

Got some of your own? List them in this thread.

Why should you do this?
Maybe someone else will solve those problems for you. Or maybe you will find some ideas that you can execute. It’s a win-win for all.

Here are some ideas that I never executed and (most probably) never will -
- An app/platform where normal people or small filmmakers can create and post their own tv-series and movies.
- An app that gifts you points for completing good habits daily like waking up early, reading 20 pages, etc. These rewards can later be redeemed for gift vouchers and other stuff.
- A social media dedicated to Entrepreneurship. It is something like this forum, but like a proper social media platform where people can interact and share ideas. It is in no way similar to LinkedIn.
- An app that tells you about famous apps for any particular country. For example: If I select France, it will show me the famous apps in France for different categories like taxi booking, metro apps, food reservation, online shopping, etc.
- A social media influencer marketing platform where we can chat with influencers and do marketing with them. Like pay them to promote posts on their account, etc.

Your reason for not implementing ideas might be anything from not having enough time, money, fear of failing or something else.

We all go through this, so don’t be hesitant.

Share your ideas below. It’s time to get creative.

Life is all about sharing. If we are good at something, pass it on. ~Mary Berry

In 2004 I was finishing my Masters degree in Warsaw, there was a bunch of nice people studying with me, from all corners of the country. I thought it's a shame that we most likely don't get to see each other anymore, so I set to create a website for us to hang out. Made a website in html, even used pictures of my fellow students for mockup accounts to visualise the idea (must still have the website somewhere on my old hard drive). But then I gave up because my lack of html programming skills :)

Years back my first idea was an app that could tell how packed a gym was in real time. Stopped working on it because I was a complete beginner in coding.

Other app ideas I have are the same concept but for different places. e.g How long lines are at a airport, drive-thru, restaurant etc.

My friends dad was a long distance trucker and now just does local routes but at truck stops he would pay decent money to shower and eat and he complained about how shitty they were. I bet luxury truck stops that were well maintained could do well in a bigger city. Like say if you could buy a pass for 500$ a month and there was a gym, clean showers/toilets, healthy food, and other entertainment people would be down to pay that much.

Sounds like a promising idea, but it requires quite a large initial investment for rent and construction of these centres.

I think as well that this is good. Not sure about how many of the truck drivers would pay for it. Huge costs if you want to build several locations. With one location to start, not that much (but still a lot for normal people).

I worked on something like that for a bit many years back and was limited by publicly available data. Then, I found out some companies had access to this data, for a price, and I was a bit weirded out about the ethics of the whole thing because of what it involved.

What ethics are you talking about?

I think this can be a really good idea, for niche audiences.

As a 12-year old kid I dreamt up of self-service supermarkets and even created a business plan for it. Many people laughed at it back then, but today they are a reality (unfortunately I didn't take action on it due to lack of capital and inability to secure funding). It taught me an important lesson – to focus on ideas I can get the capital for easily, whether because I own it, or I have the right connections to get it.

Yup :)) Couldn’t believe this.



Tech based textile that changes colour. You’ll become a billionaire in a matter of weeks once you have it working ;):rofl:
Reminds me of hyper-color - anyone else old enough to remember this? I wonder who has the trademark/copyright/rights on that? If you could just pay a Kardashian to wear it, perhaps it would become popular again.

I mean companies having access to people's exact locations and time, habits, and then selling that without the people knowing.

Seed oil free sauces and condiments

Advertise on all the health and carnivore pages

Blows my mind you go to the organic store and there’s a sauce for $15 claiming it’s organic and you look and the main ingredient is canola oil

Someone will genuinely build an 8 figure company in this space and it’s not even hard, will it be you? I’m tempted

Who was the guy who made the low fodmap sauces on the forum? Does anyone remember?

I would if someone created a library of famous tv shows / movies with all the nudity blurred out. I've watched a couple of Sopranos episodes and its very entertaining but there is way to many scenes of nude strippers.

A dashboard that tracks how much you're spending on software vs how often you actually use it.

I've wasted thousands of dollars on software that I forgot to cancel. And bigger companies are wasted much more on their software spend. For example, in cloud computing, a half trillion dollar annual industry with double digit annual growth, I've read estimates that 30% of the money is wasted. So there's billions of dollars of opportunity right there.

Companies do things like pay for bigger servers than they need, buy redundant six figure software that solves the same problem because different teams don't talk to each other, or they buy huge software solution packages when they only need 5% of the functionality.

This guy VanMan's Shop: Natural Health & Wellness Products No Exceptions grosses 7 figures or so in revenue selling tooth powder, lip balm, skin cream, etc and has value proposition is basically "beauty care with no toxic ingredients".

Create a parody/satirical website of the WEF and name it the World Misanthropic Forum. Think Babylon Bee style.

This a-holes need to be marginalized as the joke they are.

And then perhaps, billionaires and politicians will stop being puppeteered by them.
