I do technical consulting for the grocery business. The grocery industry is a lot of fun -- lots of extremely hard technical challenges and interesting CS problems, but also lots of low hanging fruit in the way of painful manual process. Couple this with the fact that the grocery marketplace is dynamic in the extreme. Prices and availability of items in categories like produce change on a daily if not hourly cadence. And it's all about relationships, which is something nearly every startup in this space misses, which is why nearly all of them fail faster and harder than they do in other industries. You won't get far if you're thinking in terms of replacing people with APIs.
Anyway, I'm excited to see what the next ten years will bring here.
