Software that does not exist yet....what would you want?

27 replies
hi all,

i have teamed up with a group of programmers and i would very much like to know, what kind of software you would like to have.
i am leaning towards a complete package with modules for just about everything, but since that would take a long time, i would like to find out what is needed now!

i appreciate the input.

      It's hard to think of a software that is not already done to death. Why not just take a crack at true AI? haha! But seriously all I could think of off the top of my head is a macro software that is easy to use, I find myself needing to do a lot of things that require repetitive clicks and simple program manipulation over and over. Especially when backing up my network, burning dvd movies and anything else maintenance related. Also anything that does batch work would make a nice new program. Batch rename or file conversion. As far as I know those areas are lacking. At least I hope they are after spending the last 2 weeks doing all that kind of annoying work manually! :p

    Here's a niche. Make stuff for mac users. It's a smaller niche, but you'll go viral faster. For exmple - mac doesn't have a good macro recorder for a decent price that I've seen yet. (at least while I was trying to look). I gave up and went with a PC solution. There are a handful of these that if you can get a nice early jump on, you'd have a user base that's used to paying for things seeing as the majority of mac users have switched for the ease of use, and are not as likely to pirate.

    This is already done, but from what I've seen most of the LP's are crap...

    I would like to see a beautifully designed dynamic landing page generator. If you could swap out a few images here and there for different niches and have all the text be editable it would be an easy sell to new internet marketers.

    Just make sure the LP layout converts well to begin with and whatever someone plugs and plays will have a higher chance of converting :-)

    Also if you could make it plug and play with a tracking system so they can have all testing functions available in the backend such as LP / Ad / Text rotating, conversion reports, spend reports, etc...

    Magneto is a shopping cart system. In regards to software that I would like to see created it would have to be a system for managing email, sales metrics such as delivery, open and CT Rates. Not to mention bounce statistic with automated list cleaning and sales reports for optins sales, upsells downsells and cross sells.

    a simple app for ebook cover generation. no action scripts, no photoshop. just something specifically for product images that could generate good looking results with a bunch of options. that would be cool

      Great idea I was thinking along those lines too. Something that could do that in one application would rock and maybe even it could hold all of your projects in it that you are running at once. (wistful sighs)

      We're working on that for our system so you might want to keep an eye out on when we roll that out. We have a notification list sign up if you would like to be notified when we roll out.

      ---

      As for something I would like to see is a turnkey way to manage your own reputation online without having to sign up to several services and manage the sporadically. However, maybe someone here already knows a good way to do this.

      I'm not talking about just signing up for Google Alerts, but something that can aggregate the several or most important services that offer a auto delivered search for your set keywords and then just have it managed in one panel. Like Traffic Geyser does for video site management.

    I would buy software that would copy my wordpress blogs, including activating and keeping the settings on my plugins, and reinstall the blog on a different location. Say for example you wanted to clone a blog on HostGator and reinstall it at BlueHost.
    As a non techie guy, I find the process of copying the files and databases a bit intimidating. I am paying people to copy and move blogs for me now, but would like to do that myself.

      I would buy this too. Also would buy a bot to automatically submit ebooks to all the free ebook sites and wherever free ebooks are posted.

        Actually Sbucciarel, Thanks to your great post on how to copy and move a wordpress blog, I was able to decide I did not want to do it myself, but was able to hire someone to do the task! (I sent him your pdf and told him to do it like that) Much thanks again!

          Thanks. Glad it was of some use. I outsource this too because I have so many to do at times. I did buy some site cloner that wasn't cheap some time ago and it never worked and was very difficult to configure, so I wouldn't want to duplicate that experience.

    I'd like a software program that converts PowerPoint slides into Photoshop files so that they can be modified and used as tiltes in a live-action video without having to be re-made or recorded with Camtasia first.

    A lot of editors who make corporate and industrial videos would find this very useful.

    Just about everything? OK, here are some actual things I wanted to do, FOR A *****REASONABLE***** REAL cost!

    1. Find hotel rooms, etc... based on various criteria.
    2. Find flights, etc... based on various criteria.(BTW I have a nice algorithm that could work well with this and even #1.)
    3. Get CURRENT stock info from any of the worlds major exchanges.

    if you could do ANY of those three, you stand to make a LOT of money. You would not BELIEVE prices I have been quoted.

    of course, the trick is NOT the software, but the DATA!

    Heck, how about an advertising spot routine?
