    • Idea: Allow for stock purchases connected to various services
  • Shopping list: Remember things to buy and optionally sort them by store. "What do I need from Costco?"
  • Restaurant recommendations: Recommend restaurants based on a person's location. "Can you find me a good Indian restaurant?"
    • Idea: Improve and customize recommendations over time with feedback from the user.
    • Idea: Allow for searching based on restaurant qualities: e.g. quiet, date spot, great bar, great for sports, etc.]
  • User analytics: Track user growth and interactions over time through an Admin Panel plugin.
  • Performance monitoring: Notify admins when anything goes wrong and provide a detailed stack and performance history in an admin plugin.
