It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (92) and held back by monetisation (58).

Legal teams lose denials abandoned because appealing costs more than the claim. In most legal businesses this job has never had software written for it. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A retrieval engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes claims & appeals. Revenue is flat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
