Effort
A few weeks

Engineers use FFTs daily but few understand how they actually work under the hood.

Create a web app that lets users upload signals, tweak parameters, and see the transform unfold step-by-step with explanations.

Sell to engineering schools and companies for training. Offer team licenses.

Start with just the classic Cooley-Tukey algorithm visualization.

Niche appeal may limit growth beyond educational markets.
