Is there demand for a managed web automation and monitoring service?

1•TheOneEye•1h ago
I’m exploring an idea and would appreciate feedback.

Many businesses still spend hours on repetitive tasks like:

Manually checking tender portals

Monitoring competitor websites for updates

Tracking bids or opportunities across portals

I’m considering building a fully managed web automation + monitoring service to handle these tasks automatically.

My questions:

Does this pain feel real to you (or companies you know)?

How do you/your org handle it today?

Would you pay for such a service, or is it a “nice-to-have”?

I’m still in validation phase, so I’m not trying to sell anything here — just want honest feedback before going further.
