Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A subscription service for high-quality, pre-brewed puer tea concentrates designed for quick mixing.
  2. A curated sampler box of low-jitter, high-L-theanine tea alternatives specifically marketed for deep work productivity.
  3. A mobile app that tracks caffeine intake and provides personalized recommendations for alternative stimulants based on individual digestive and anxiety sensitivities.
