Question 2: What is the pain point you are experiencing?

I'm doubtful many can articulate this as the first real question, at least accurately describe the true problem. This is actually a big part of the value of any "solution", yet you expect to get it for free at the start.

Later you ask what I think is the root cause... if I knew that I would state it as the pain point earlier.

Finally you just end the interaction with "thanks!". What value did I get out of this? I provided you with very shallow data for what exactly, and you gave me... nothing?

Not sure what the value proposition is...

Hi Skeeter2020, thank you for your comment, appreciate it! Your evaluation is perfect, it is very tough to identify your own pain point. 1. "GPT assisted" pain point identification is the first value add. To get to a clear statement of what you are experiencing. "routing with current tool doesn't allow for adding more stops" 2. A scoped document, "GPT assisted" again, that helps to run the purchase request up the chain. "a simple csv ingestion tool, running locally, that optimizes using openrouteservice, with output that works with your current logistics planning tool, $100/month for 12 months"

This is a work in progress.

And the typeform has a mistake, not collecting contact detail :-D thank you!
