Terry: Its good to have you on board because I know enough about what makes software work to be dangerous. Evaluating whether or not it woks and what is does and does not do is one thing which is very important. To evaluate marketability though of a product with so many possible diverse applications I think you might need to consult with many different disciplines. Absent a trial market, it might be difficult to put yourself in the place of say an accountant or engineer or doctor or ??? to determine if it will be useful to them or not, whether it will appeal to them or not or whatever goes through their mind when they make a decision to buy something or not.

You might want to consider putting on the SI thread what it does and does not do and let people respond with (1) their credentials in their area of experience (2) whether they would buy it or not (3) why for each.

You could start a market study business this way and I think it would be a reliable service. Probably many more ideas, controls, etc. that could be thought of. Any marketing people out there? Here's your chance to get in on the ground floor of marketability studies via the internet.
