Business Idea: A simple, zero-login, lightweight bill-splitting tool designed for casual groups and students to easily settle shared expenses without the complexity of traditional apps.
Problem: Existing bill-splitting apps are often too feature-heavy and intimidating for casual users, making it cumbersome to split expenses quickly and effortlessly.
Solution: A minimalistic web-based platform where users input names, shared items, and payments to generate clear, shareable summaries. It includes an optional OCR receipt upload feature to streamline expense entry.
Target Audience: Students, friends, roommates, or small groups who need quick, hassle-free expense splitting without creating accounts or downloading complex apps.
Monetization: Currently free, potential future revenue streams include offering premium features, enhanced OCR capabilities, or integrations with payment platforms.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP): No registration, no app download, instant sharing, and a focus on simplicity—perfect for non-technical users who want quick results.
Launch Strategy: Start with a free, accessible website to gather user feedback. Promote through university groups and social media, and refine OCR features based on user input to improve accuracy and usability.
