To be clear I repeat that again: I'm not a fan of any paid voting service, but I get your idea.
As already mentioned on chat by @anmitsu, @acidyo's OCDB is pretty much similar project. Their main advantage however is not only a high ROI, but their team of curators who are working to ensure that service will be used by those who adds value.
Keep in mind that maintaining such project would require a lot of effort.
That being said, I like the idea of removing a middle man from the equation. Documenting whole process would be a good idea too. You might want to check if @utopian-io can help you with this project.

If I'm understanding the post correctly, the solution could be something like a copy of ocdb but with custom whitelists and let the owner choose their own ROI and other things. One thing they can't control is if others delegate to it but the owner can obviously choose to not send any payouts to those users if he wants the bot to only use his own vp.
About maintenance and upkeep, yeah there's often glitches and issues and a hardfork around the corner that could force you to update something which is not easy if you aren't a dev yourself.
Anyway I wouldn't mind making the current ocdb opensource, I'm pretty sure it is, if not I'll talk to the awesome Devs we have that have put their time into ours pro bono and I'm very thankful to. They knew it was going to be nonprofit and help the platform so all the credit goes to them.
Anyway, let me know about more details and if I can help in any way. @thevil

Thank you a million times.
This is an early stage but I finally manage to start doing something instead of just thinking.
I think I'm going to use @yabapmatt's postpromoter code for MVP.
@themarkymark just confirmed on chat that it already has support for blacklists.

Thank you, Wizard, your feedback is always valuable and means a lot to me.
OCDB looks like a good project but is heavily limited by its whitelist. For example I couldn't promote this post there. You are not on the whitelist too!
Decentralization of non profit voting services will add value and I will learn and document everything on my way.

Update I
To achieve my goals:
I need:
[ ] software for voting automation
[ ] software for bid bot
[ ] server to run that software
[ ] initial setup
[ ] maintenance
After many talks I think that @holger80's
steemrewarding
would be perfect for voting automation, and @yabapmatt'spostpromoter
for bid bot.Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
