Prelude to HurryBuy

After all the ideas we had before (the ones we posted in the Commerce Accelerator platform and the ones that got lost in the middle) we became kind of "pros" in finding a problem and a solution. We started to find issues everywhere!

A bit after this mentally disturbed stage, we started to think "what's our situation now? what kind of problems do we have to face during the day-to-day?" and we answered to those questions by saying "we are Erasmus students". And most (or some of them, at least) of the Erasmus students have a big issue: they don't know how to cook or what to do for dinner.
And with this we got to the idea of having a platform that calculates recipes by writing down the ingredients that we have in the storage. Unfortunately, it already exists. So we had to drop the ball again.

Either way, this brought up new ideas.
What if we made something like "A Complete Guide To The Exchange Student / Youngster That Got Out Of His Parents House - A How To Survive Kit" application?
We'd have some levels on how to cook food, how to clean the  house, how to do laundry, etc. But then we realized some strong risks, such as: the guide would lose its interest by the time when the student/ youngster learns how to to the chores; he could just call his parents or friends for help without the need for an application.

After this we got back to the storage idea again (the one where you wright down the ingredients you have and it riffles a recipe for you). We really liked this idea, so we started to think about another app that could calculate when you need to go to the supermarket to buy more things that are getting out of stock in your storage.
Even so, we got to some issues on how to calculate this, so we drop this idea out too.

This brought up even another idea.
We figured out another problem: when you are in a hurry and you need to go to the supermarket.
If you had an application where you could select rapidly the items you need to buy (while in the transportation, the traffic jam, some reunion, place, etc.) and then go to the supermarket to lift up the shopping bags, this could save a lot of your time that you would waste while looking up for things in the endless shelves.

This was how HurryBuy came to light!
