Cyclists often struggle with finding paths that minimize elevation changes, making rides more accessible and enjoyable. Build a mobile app that utilizes mapping APIs to calculate and display the flattest routes between any two points. Casual cyclists and commuters who want a smoother ride would pay for this convenience. The simplest version could allow users to input start and end points, showing the best route. The risk lies in the accuracy of the route calculations and competition from existing navigation apps.
