There are a lot of projects that want to serve an under-served space, but lack a novel idea about how to do it. In many ways, even companies like Theranos fell into this trap. They knew it would be great to have the device they promised, but the company wasn't founded around any sort of novel idea about how to accomplish it, just a wish.

This. Exactly this.

However, if you do something full time the inspiration to implement your wish can appear. Waiting to be blessed by inspiration probably won't lead to a solution.

I mean maybe but this is software. Providing enterprise software per use or per customer at at low cost is a common path.
