▸ paddock: Trading & markets — 1,109 daily txns across just 1 provider. Real demand, near-empty field. Spend Share 2.6%. The clearest open niche right now.
Also try: "What are agents spending on right now?" · "Show me the LLM inference category."
— for builders

Ship what agents already buy.

Let the data tell you what to build. Categories with high transaction counts and few providers are open niches — real demand meeting an empty field. You reach product-market fit faster because you're building into proven demand, not guessing what agents might want.
