Bean Stuff helps you find quality coffee that is worth your time. It gives each coffee shop a Snob Score that reflects how good its coffee is, and you can filter by the quality you want. It also filters out most chains, so you can find a good cortado, flat white, pour over and more wherever you are. Use it while you travel or when you’re out and about to find the best coffee without the disappointment.

Could you build this?
Partial The map and filter UI is easy to build with a maps API. The 'Snob Score' requires a quality-rating dataset that doesn't exist publicly, so the core value depends on proprietary data collection and scoring.
What it would actually take: Pull shop data from a places API, filter chains with a brand list, and build a review-mining pipeline with NLP over reviews and ratings. The hard part is curating and validating a quality signal that people trust. That takes domain expertise and a sizeable dataset, not just code.
