Gear Owners Have No Simple Way to Rent Out Idle Equipment and Track Returns

Individuals who own expensive equipment like cameras, lenses, and lighting have no practical platform to rent it out without over-engineering. Existing rental marketplaces take large cuts and lack self-hosted inventory tracking tailored to independent owners. The result is idle capital that cannot be easily monetized.

With 21 million rental units in the region and near-zero software penetration, this is a large underserved vertical with strong structural demand.
