Too Big as a Hobby Project...
Your app is a GOOD START but still requires some
FURTHER DEVELOPMENT
Can you PROMISE that
your app SCALES UP and STAYS UP ?
Sorry folks, I’m TOO BUSY with my DAY JOB and those MAINTENANCE COSTS are killing me...

... but Too Small for Investors?
Well, it’s a nice DEMO but I doubt it will become a multi-billion business -
yearly REVENUE only about 100k€ ...
But that’s A LOT of MONEY!
Not for me, boy...
Goodbye!

Business Model
I pay for application sessions
to visualize
open data as
heatmaps
I earn with session sales and pay for heatmaps
I’m paid every time my data is needed
I get money when my algorithm is used to create heatmaps
Cloud’N’Sci makes all this possible and charges a marketplace fee from the providers
I charge for heatmaps and pay for the data and using the heatmap
algorithm
