- Three judges assess each idea for profitability, public demand, and whether it can be executed.
Field notes
The page frames each case around a specific lot, with the current example set at a corner opposite a university; entries are submitted through Instagram, one sentence per person per case. Three named judges assess money-making potential, public demand, and feasibility. The page names a café-bookshop idea by @alex187vt as the winner, while its counters still show zero buildings constructed, leaving the status and meaning of “built” unclear.
