What is a niche, real-world problem in your job or hobby that could be solved with a custom Python/ML app?

Hey everyone,

I’m a high school developer looking to build a tailored application for a technical project. I want to build a solution for a genuine, everyday headache that real people or niche hobbies/industries deal with, rather than making another generic dashboard.

My goal is to build a software suite that combines:

  1. Predictive Machine Learning / Classification (e.g., predicting trends, risk scoring, categorising complex inputs)
  2. Custom Algorithmic Logic (e.g., route optimisation, spatial pathfinding, data compression, audio/signal processing)
  3. Data Management & Analytics (database logging, parameter tuning, clean user interface)

I’m looking for your specific pain points:

  1. Is there a tedious analysis, routing, tracking, or categorisation task in your job, hobby, or daily workflow that existing mainstream apps handle terribly (or charge way too much for)?
  2. What’s a problem where you wish you had a smart tool to calculate, optimise, or predict outcomes for you?

Open to ideas across logistics, finance, audio/media, environmental tech, gaming analytics, or niche hobby workflows. Would love to hear what bugs you !
