Make the unglamorous part of an event worth automating

Track returnable equipment across event jobs. A narrow job-level return workflow could reduce reconciliation work without requiring a full rental-management system.

Buyer and gap hypothesis

Gap hypothesis. Small event suppliers may use spreadsheets to track equipment packed, delivered and returned. A narrow job-level return workflow could reduce reconciliation work without requiring a full rental-management system.

ICP and product. Target AV, staging or decor suppliers with repeat inventory and several concurrent jobs. Start with item import, job manifests, QR-based check-out/check-in, damage notes and a missing-items report. Exclude warehouse optimisation, financial accounting and native mobile applications.

The connected workflow

MarketResearches return and manifest workflows.
ICPSelects one supplier category with similar inventory practices.
GoBotsTurns the chosen opportunity into a focused product model, requirements and approved build tasks.
IntelligenceRepresents items, kits, jobs and custody states.
Vibe/ComputeBuilds a mobile-friendly web workflow.
Business ReviewInspects partial returns, damaged items and duplicated scans.
OutreachOffers a paid pilot for a defined set of upcoming jobs.
FeedbackCrew feedback and unresolved return states guide subsequent changes through the same product model.

Outreach prepares the messages; a person sends them and handles the replies. Proposed automated actions need supported connectors, customer permissions and configured release and send rules.

Modelled investment and revenue

Illustrative scenarioIllustrative investment: $5,000

Operator time (75 hours at $40/hour)	$3,000
GitMir, agent and model allowance	$800
Infrastructure/APIs	$400
Acquisition experiments	$800
Illustrative investment	$5,000

MVP assumption: 3–4 weeks.

Modelled target20 suppliers × $149/month = $2,980 MRR in a 4–8 month test

If the operator is an unpaid founder, the initial cash need is $2,000 — the investment without the operator's time. The GitMir, agent and model allowance is provisional, not GitMir published pricing. MRR is gross revenue, not profit: taxes, refunds, implementation fees and ongoing software, API, support and acquisition costs are not included.

Each month: customers = previous × (1 − churn) + new; revenue = customers × price; contribution = revenue × margin − customers × support; cumulative cash starts at −build cost and adds contribution minus new customers × acquisition cost.

Pilot gates

Run three paid pilots with representative manifests. Verify scan idempotency, partial kit handling and clear connectivity requirements. Measure reconciliation time and missing-item detection. Avoid assuming a reduction in losses until sufficient completed jobs establish it.
