Could you build this?
No Communicating with iOS devices over USB requires reverse-engineering Apple's undocumented internal protocols (CoreDevice, DVT, usbmuxd, and AFC) and dealing with low-level device daemons.
What it would actually take: A real implementation requires a macOS application in Swift/Objective-C that interfaces directly with usbmuxd and private frameworks like MobileDevice or modern CoreDevice Daemons. Engineers must understand protocol-level packet framing over USB multiplexing, pairing cryptography (lockdown certificates), and reverse-engineered binary communication protocols, requiring deep system-level iOS/macOS systems expertise.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a dev tools tool for Sales yet.
