Every technology entrepreneur eventually faces the same conversation with an investor, a board member, or a sleepless 3am internal monologue: "But what happens when Google builds this?" Or Microsoft. Or Amazon. Or a well-funded competitor that raised $200M last month while you are still closing your seed.
