I'm not too experienced with this kind of problem, but I'd say try to analyze how big its market may be, what customers would be willing to pay and how you could finance the development, marketing and maintenance.
For me it sounds mostly like a financial question.
If you are sure that there will be enough paying customers for your product to sustain it, I would rather keep the rights and market it yourself.

The week before project deadline...
Can we do that??? 😶
I haven't been ranting in a while but y'all are so smart that I can't get enough of your wisdom!
So... Client wants me to build something. That something has a lot of commercial value as a product or even a startup...
How do I go about communicating that? Do I reach an agreement to release it open-source and then I can offer commercial support? Do I offer them a discounted price for my services and I remain the owner of the code?
Thanks! 😊
