Logistics teams lose defects caught by the customer instead of the line. In most logistics businesses this job has never had software written for it. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Quality control handled by an anomaly detector, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-vehicle, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
