Metarex Foolcat integration

2 minute read

You’ve done the work, written the import/export tools, made your own normalized metadata schemas and polished the UI until the customers can see their reflection in the shiny loveliness of the downloadable app.

What if you could sell that metadata conversion as a subscription to a wider audience? What if highlighting those capabilities became a small revenue generator that led to personal recommendation rather than marketing costs?

Would you be willing to extract and refactor 2 of your supported camera metadata formats into serverless Spin applications. These would be the first PAYGO apps to be tested in the Proof of Concept for Q1 next year.

The {{metarex}} workflow would be used in a non-hedge workflow MAM to identify that normalisation can take place, authentication & a micropayment would occur and the 3rd party MAM would receive validated, verified data in a normalised format.

• Rabbit Holes: Known risks, difficult areas, or edge cases that could derail the project or require further exploration.

• No-gos: Explicit boundaries detailing what is intentionally left out of this solution or project, preventing scope creep.

Purpose and Process

A pitch is used to present a “bet” to decision-makers, who choose which pitches become projects for the upcoming build cycle. The pitch trades detail for clarity-it’s specific enough to show the core idea and risks, but avoids granular specs or design mandates so that product teams retain autonomy during the build.
