What's happening?
A familiar app removes part of the discovery and setup work for an adjacent need. Whether one service creates demand for another requires behavioral evidence; service placement by itself establishes only the opportunity.
Why it might work
How the mechanism creates value
A customer who already trusts a service may face less friction trying a related one. Shared identity, payment, or delivery infrastructure can reduce repeated setup. The offer still needs to match a real adjacent need rather than compete with the current task.
