Thank you for your input, sir. We did an immense amount of research on this topic during the first 12 hours, but couldn't show it all due to the time constraints.

In this 21st century where everything is getting smarter and connected, we thought of making hearing aids smarter too, which would act as our catapult in the aid industry and later transition to the market of those who are completely without hearing.

Even if we made the app smartphone only (without the hearing aids), the coming version of Android, Google will block background microphone access for developers (which iOS is already doing), which would render our smartphone only app useless.

concept look good but presentation missing as a solution.

The solution is to package our software on hearing aids to avoid getting our features disabled by Google which will happen in the upcoming Android P, and something that iOS already does.

We plan to initially offer a free Roshni Lite, which would make hearing aid smarter, helping us gain initial traction, while a paid Roshni Pro would have extra features for those who are completely hearing impaired.

Clearly identify your use-cases; also look for competitors in the market and a distribution model for hearing aids.

Thank you for your input, sir. According to the research we did last night, we have virtually no competitors in the smart hearing aid industry.

Shaurya Jain - 1269d

Even if there were any other hearing assistance apps, they would be rendered useless when Google launches the upcoming version of Android, Android P, which would block background microphone access for developers.

We don’t plan to create our own hearing aids, but make the existing ones smarter in some way.

They are trying to make a special use case of Virtual assistance. See issue with scalability. Also lack of clarity on idea.

Thank you, sir. Our idea is to make hearing aids smarter, like everything else that surrounds us.

So, we want to package our software on hearing aids to avoid this, and thus gain an edge over our competitors, if there are any.
