WhatA plug-and-play hardware device (or pre-configured software image) that sets up a full home VPN with exit node capability, media streaming, and a simple invite flow for non-technical family members.
SignalUsers want to access their home servers remotely, stream geo-restricted content through their home IP, and easily onboard non-technical family — but stitching together Tailscale, exit nodes, and media servers is still a multi-step technical project that intimidates normal people.

MarketMillions of households with home servers, NAS devices, or cord-cutting setups; adjacent to the $2B+ consumer VPN market. Competes with Firewalla (hardware firewall + VPN) but nobody owns the 'family-friendly home mesh' niche.
