Business judgment on AI products

Marv

When people unfamiliar with a piece of software get stuck and do not know where to click, Marv acts as a cursor companion that marks the next click target on screen so the user can follow along. It takes in the current screen and the user's step, and outputs on-screen click guidance; which applications are supported, whether the user must first describe the task, and whether the guidance is verifiable are not stated in the public material, so the workflow and deliverable still need checking.

Why this would be needed

Start inside the user's day · Public facts + workflow reasoning · 2026-10-06

Use case

A novice user unfamiliar with a piece of software, stuck on the interface and unsure where to click next, needs to follow on-screen hints to finish the current task.

Searching written tutorials, watching videos, asking colleagues, or using built-in help docs and support; no public evidence shows whether these alternatives are actually inefficient.

The public material contains only a one-line product description, so the intensity, frequency, and consequences of getting stuck cannot be confirmed; there is no user feedback or case showing that existing alternatives (searching tutorials, watching videos, asking colleagues) actually fail to match the current screen.

xOcto's call

Problem identified, demand strength unclear

Trend: AI is moving from answering questions to walking users through a step on the real interface, suggesting onboarding and software training are shifting from docs and videos to in-screen live hints. Entry: start with enterprise software training and post-sales onboarding, selling to SaaS vendors or training firms that must teach many customers a complex back office, priced per trainee or per integrated application; first confirm it can reliably recognize specific software screens, otherwise it is just a generic cursor hint.

Reason to use it

Why users would choose it

Inference: if it can mark the next click directly on the user's current screen, it removes the step of mapping tutorial instructions onto one's own interface; however, the public material does not say which software is supported or whether the guidance is verifiable, so which users would choose it and when cannot be confirmed.
