A good way to start is to look around for things that people or companies are already using (some B2B software tool), and see if there are a ton of people complaining about it (maybe some bad feature, aggressive pricing model, customer support etc.). If so then you can start building an open-source version of it, since you already know what are the key features to build and add.

I am working on an open-source natural language search for codebases. I thought it might be interesting to be able to search for relevant classes, functions etc. when the codebases are very large. Then further I am planning on extending it to searching for git commits, PRs, issues etc.
