Behold, a thread where people who wish some machine learning-based webservice, library/framework or application existed meet people who are looking for a fun project idea to implement! Pure magic.

Hello HN,

We are a couple of Vancouver (Canada)-based engineers who developed a technology and intend to convert it to a (probably micro-franchise-type) business.

In short, it is printing as a service in a public place. You pay online and can send files to the printer (situated in a university building, library, coffee shop). Something along the lines of Mac AirPrint or Google Cloud Print as an external service, except that you can use it from anything that has a browser and is simply better.

I believe, we are great with the technology. However, we are somewhat fuzzy with the business side of matters.

If there is a Vancouver-based entrepreneur out there with relevant experience who is willing to mentor us on such matters, could you please contact us at tihoutrom at gmail.

Thank you.
