Opportunities, Not Just Business Ideas
We are building a database of startup business ideas designed to inspire entrepreneurs. You may access its ideas through our series of ebooks.
We use AI-powered software to find practical problems in online data, paying attention to pain points that consumers and businesses are likely to invest in solving. Then our software generates business ideas to target them. Lucho (a Ph.D. guy) remains in the loop to improve and curate the ideas.
See a handful of examples below, but don't pass on the opportunity to explore all ideas in our series of PDF books present real-world problems and business ideas to tackle each of them, carefully selected from our database.
Startup and Business Ideas
Here are a few examples of startup and business ideas available in our ebooks. The wide range of problems to tackle calls for a broad spectrum of ideas. They might be for a local business, or be online business ideas. Some are small business ideas, while others might have the potential to become billion dollar business ideas (please, read more about this under FAQ).
Breakfast in a Box
👉 Hotel visitors are advised to bring their preferred breakfast foods and skip hotels that impose surcharges to ensure a pleasant stay.
💡 A subscription-based service that delivers a box of breakfast food items to your hotel before your arrival, eliminating the need to bring your own breakfast foods. The box includes a selection of cereals, pastries, fruit, and coffee/tea. The service partners with hotels to ensure seamless delivery upon check-in.

💡 EcoSeat Exchange is a platform connecting eco-conscious consumers with sustainable furniture manufacturers for hassle-free trade-ins of old sofas for new, durable, and environmentally friendly alternatives. Customers benefit from cost-effective upgrades while reducing waste.

👉 Rural towns in the U.S., like those in Nebraska and Kansas, face significant challenges due to the closure of grocery stores, with many counties having no grocery stores, impacting access to fresh food.
💡 Fresh Fare Express is a mobile grocery delivery service catering to rural towns in the U.S. like those in Nebraska and Kansas, providing fresh produce and essential groceries directly to customers' doorsteps on a scheduled basis. Customers can place orders through an easy-to-use app or website, ensuring convenient access to healthy food options.
Wind Turbine Material Recycling
👉 The wind industry is grappling with the technical challenges of recycling remaining materials from turbines and permanent magnets used in modern turbines.

Big Startup Ideas is a database of startup business ideas designed to inspire entrepreneurs. You may access its ideas through our series of ebooks.
We use our AI-powered software to find opportunities in online data and generate these ideas, as opposed to traditional 'startup idea generators', which just generate ideas without any basis in actual data.
Lucho (a Ph.D. guy with years of experience in innovation and tech research, and the sole developer at Big Startup Ideas) codes the software, curates the AI findings and explores different approaches that improve idea creation. He regularly does research consulting with startups, other tech companies and some enterprise clients.
Big Startup Ideas is intended for entrepreneurs, but existing business owners and angel investors can also use it to stay current on emerging trends, for example.
Check our online store to see the price of our latest ebook. We offer discounts based on the purchasing power of the country you are from.
Our database includes ideas for new consumer and business products or services. These ideas are crafted to inspire solutions to specific business problems identified in the data or to capitalize on discovered opportunities.
Yes! In fact, every idea is for you. This is the thing: the problems we identify are specific to cities or countries, but they might also be a problem where you live. So, they may inspire you to start a similar business in your own location.
You've likely heard the adage that ideas lack value without effective execution. From this perspective, these ideas may appear as mere 'ideas.' Furthermore, some of them might be unfeasible or non-profitable. However, the ideas on our database leverage real economic, business, and market data to generate ideas, ensuring they are grounded and target a specific problem someone faces.
We believe that's a good starting point to inspire you, but you may want to consider other factors too when vetting ideas (see, for example, How to get startup ideas by Jared Friedman).
If you decide to pursue any of them, you will almost certainly need to carry out additional research. You should read the Terms of Use too.
