Yeah same, I won’t say I have no ideas, but I have none that are commercializable.

Heh, I have some that I think are commercializable, then I go online and look for companies that are doing similar things, and lo and behold, there are already several competitors who are doing a pretty good job.

At least a good enough job that there's no way I can easily cut into their market share or take some of their clients without significant outside funding.

There's nothing new under the sun. Almost all ideas will have already been done by somebody else. And if nobody has even tried it, then it's possible it's not a good idea.
