Roast my startup – Make Roomba Play with Kids/Dogs/Cats, bring you toilet paper
I would really appreciate your constructive feedback.
More robot app ideas/categories: - companionship (those living solo, seniors) - patrol house (texts you if your place got flooded) - entertain (yell when bumped, etc.)
Startup profile - The product - apps, apps marketplace for home robots (like Roomba) https://Remake.ai - The market - ~22M home robot vacuum cleaners sold in 2025; smartphone apps (iOS, Android) make ~$100 per user (give or take) - Product analysis / comparison against competition - quite a few robots come with API, sometimes app store - What stage are you in? Do you need money? Are you raising? - finishing MVP, funding available for now; may need to raise later - Customer conversion strategy (where do you find them, and how do you make them buy shit from you) - this is largely TBD; the current plan is to try launching on Kickstarter, use FB/IG/Reddit ads and viral video shorts

individualized hardware modules for spacific tasks e.g front end dog pile loader, and pull behind manure wagon.
