Many open-source projects are restricting AI-assisted contributions, causing potential contributors to feel excluded. Create a tool that supports traditional contributions, guiding users through the process while ensuring adherence to project standards. Developers and contributors will pay for tools that help them navigate this landscape effectively. The smallest version could be a simple documentation assistant, while the biggest risk is ensuring compliance with various open-source project guidelines.
