The following are the creative, novel ideas generated by AhaApple using AI + brainstorming techniques + innovative techniques simultaneously:
- Segmentation: Offering specialized adoption events for senior dogs, as they often get overlooked in shelters.
- Taking Out: Creating an app that allows potential adopters to virtually ‘take out’ a shelter dog for a day to see if they are a good fit.
- Local Quality: Partnering with local businesses to have adoptable dogs featured in their storefronts or on their websites.
- Asymmetry: Offering discounted adoption fees for dogs with special needs or medical conditions.
- Merging: Collaborating with pet food brands to provide a free supply of food for the first year after adoption.
- Universality: Hosting monthly adoption events at community centers, making it more accessible for people to browse different dogs.
- Nesting: Building on-site play areas at the shelter to show how the dog interacts in a home environment.

- Preliminary Anti-action: Providing online training resources to help potential adopters prepare for the arrival of their new pet.
- Preliminary action: hosting informational workshops about the adoption process and responsibilities of owning a dog.

- Equipotentiality: Offering trial adoption periods where potential adopters can temporarily take home a dog before fully committing.
- Inversion: Partnering with local schools to have students create profiles and videos for the shelter dogs to increase visibility.
