Assuming it refers to home solutions that Google wants to get to build
Customers
Homeowners/ Rental
Hotels
Banks

"I would define success by first figuring out what our goal is by building the reels feature. Are we trying to increase DAUs? Increase enagement? Etc... For the sake of this, I think to define success it makes most sense to see if there is an increase in the amount of time users are spending on instagram. If time spent per user increases, it is likely that ad spend can increase and in turn increases instagram's reveue.
