Illustrative scenario
Give franchise operators a visible action loop after every visit. A narrow follow-up workflow could be useful without replacing their operational systems.
Gap hypothesis. Small franchise groups may collect visit notes and photos but struggle to see whether agreed corrective actions are completed. A narrow follow-up workflow could be useful without replacing their operational systems.
ICP and product. Target operators with 5–30 locations and regular area-manager visits. The MVP supports buyer-defined visit templates, photo evidence, assigned actions, deadlines and closure review. Exclude regulatory certification and automated employee performance decisions.
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 target15 groups × $299/month = $4,485 MRR in a 4–8 month test, subject to a defined location allowance
If the operator is an unpaid founder, the initial cash need is $2,200 — 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.
Scenario — example inputs, replace them with yours
Model your opportunity
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. Gross revenue, not profit; taxes, refunds and overhead are not included. Your numbers stay in this page.
Secure two paid group pilots. Verify per-location access, photo handling and closure approvals. Measure overdue actions and administrative follow-ups against a baseline. Do not confuse a completed checklist with proof that a location satisfies every operational or legal requirement.
Model your opportunity before you build it.
