Ahh nice and intrusive question
 

Let's understand what Google's mission and vision are.=

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible. So, the product/platform/tool/project we are going to build will be something that will fuel our mission and take us closer towards our vision to provide access to the world's information in one click.

Assumptions:
I am assuming these engineers are fully dedicated to the project we are building and are well-equipped with the required technical knowledge and intellect.
This is applicable for the audience around the world
There is no budget, timeline and resource constraint except for the fact that we have 10 enginners

One of the pain point is opening business that I understand from my surrounding and research and my idea will be around the same

Since Google knows everything, I would utilize this USP and strength of Google and would build a platform that would be a one-stop solution for setting up your startup or small scale businesses. It would be a platform that will be with you right from the beginning, from the time you get the idea/intent/want/dream of starting or opening your business, till the final execution. It will have AI integration like ChatGPT/Gemini but much more advanced, which will not only help you in selecting the perfect and viable idea out of the many ideas you have but also provide you with a guide for accessing the right resources or maybe solutions in your hand.

For example, if I am looking for vendors to start my candle business, the AI would assist me with the contact details of all the raw material suppliers in the market, their reviews, contact numbers, and even the brochures or quotations.

So, right from assisting me with selecting the best idea out of the random 10 ideas I had, based on cost, aspects, merits, and demerits, to the investment, profitability, scalability, and market analysis, it would have been a one-stop solution.

Now, of course, this is a vague idea I have due to the limitation of the information. I would understand from the engineering team as to whether it is feasible to create one, will understand if this is really something world requires, will conduct market research, competitive research and analysis, the challenges we might face, and based on that, we will release the first MVP. The project's name would be 'Aarambh' (a Hindi word that stands for the beginning of a new journey).

A sanity check shows it is fulfilling our mission of providing information to entrepreneurs easily and in an organized manner, along with fulfilling our vision of providing access with one click.
