Decoding carrier settings can help users troubleshoot network issues, but existing tools are either too technical or incomplete. A web-based decoder could simplify the process.

Build a tool that accepts carrier configuration files and outputs human-readable explanations. Include tips for optimizing settings.

Monetize through ads or a freemium model with advanced decoding features.

The MVP could support a single smartphone model and expand to others over time.

The main risk is relying on carrier APIs that may change or restrict access.
