"This sounds like a fantastic idea anishk!! I'm waiting for this app to be developed 😁"

"Create a dedicated, lower-cost "Prototype & Robotics" inventory section featuring things like soldering stations, bench-top CNC machines, oscilloscopes, and 3D printers. Offer a "Semester Pass" subscription that is cheaper than the standard monthly…"

"Integrate a simple AI chatbot or search function where users can type in a task ("I need to cut through a steel pipe") and the app suggests the correct tools, safety gear, and accessories. This greatly enhances accessibility for non-experts."

"Provide a "vacation mode" or "subscription pause" for a low fee of instead of forcing users to fully cancel and re-subscribe. This dramatically improves customer retention by making it easy and financially sensible to stick with the service during…"

"Introduce a "Manufacturing Avoidance Metric" on the app. Use the industry average lifespan of a high-end tool (e.g., a good drill is rated for 3-5 years) and the average number of hours that tool is used in its life."
