I’m a software developer in need of something to build

[Guidance]

I’m a software developer and while I am always looking for things to build that could be profitable, it seems every single product that I look to improve has already reached a level that covers most tickboxes. For example, I looked at the accounting and finance industry, but the modern day SaaS software is already at the top of its class and nearly impossible to outcompete.
I really don’t want to give up and accept that there is nothing. Could anyone please help me or provide pointers?
