The four-color theorem is a classic problem in mathematics, but it's hard to visualize and understand. An interactive tool could make it accessible to students and educators. Educators would pay for this to enhance their teaching. Start with a simple interface for coloring maps. The biggest risk is limited appeal outside educational settings.
