Revenue comes from service fees for designing and installing those systems. Customers are individuals or small businesses who feel buried in admin work. Startup relies on consulting skill, templates and the ability to package repeatable workflows; capital needs are low. The video frames identifying a recurring client problem as the seed of a new venture.
