This is interesting. I don’t know if enough people will want this to make it a viable business, but I like the idea a lot.
I would suggest this would be an easier sell if your main client was open source. If it were open source, you would need a slightly different economic model, but here are things you could charge for:
* E2E cloud encrypted backups
* Better AI models (or just different features, like e.g. searching for YOLO categories in photos)
* Support
* Group features as a sort of realtime knowledgebase. Note you’d need a bunch of privacy stuff added. But you could charge a lot here if it worked I think.
* Spyware / time tracking software sold to the odesks of the world.
In exchange, you might get quite a lot of people using it. As an alternate, you could make the lowest tier free forever if people allowed anonymous-ish data submission, that would let your free users pay by letting you tune better models, and your paying users could benefit and keep their privacy.

Happy to talk more if you’d like.
