Ride-share drivers juggle multiple apps but lack tools to maximize earnings as surge pricing shifts. A mobile app could analyze real-time rates and queue lengths across services, recommending which to prioritize.

Aggregate anonymous driver data to predict when to switch apps, accounting for cancellations and destination preferences.

Monetize through premium features like automatic background app toggling and tax deduction tracking.

Start with a simple Android widget showing current rate comparisons in one city.

Risk: Ride-share APIs may restrict access if the tool gains traction.
