Solo feasibility Estimate
Initial assessment: Existing OCR models can support an upload-and-convert prototype, but multilingual layouts, table reconstruction, and long-document task handling require more engineering work.
Acquisition Estimate
Initial assessment: Scanned PDF-to-Markdown conversion and multilingual OCR have clear search demand, and conversion examples can directly explain their uses.
Willingness to pay Estimate
Initial assessment: Users who repeatedly process archives and documents are willing to pay for editable results, while occasional users have lower demand.
Higher scores indicate more favorable conditions. Development samples, not investment advice.
