An anomaly detector that handles renewal management end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at construction estimators, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Anomaly-Powered Renewal Manager for Estimators is an anomaly detector aimed at construction estimators, covering renewal management. It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (97) and held back by feasibility (28). Typical pricing is $6.8k–$136k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $31k–$73k.
Construction teams lose renewals that lapse because a date sat in a spreadsheet. Every construction team solves this the same way: someone stays late. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Renewal management handled by an anomaly detector, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is take-rate, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Streaming detection became practical without a dedicated data platform. Construction is growing at roughly 20% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
