I know that. But my focus in this thread are North America’s schools as a big market.
But yes—how good this algorithm really is? Where is its optimal domain?
I guess, evolving algorithms is the best usage. Either from a previous known algorithm, either from scratch, either from data. Like evolving Kepler’s law from planetary data. I wrote a post about that here, a few years ago.
The thing is, it’s a very fragmented market. The US schools are local, basically run at the town level, so for you it is essentially a retail market with a large number of customers each of which buys little. I’m guessing that you’ll need a large sales organization to break in.
Or possibly to find an existing company selling office/organization/planning software that’s already got a big share of the market and selling them license to the tech.
If your algorithm is actually the best-of-class for this problem, there are serious applications for it outside of schools.
