A narrow vision model scoped to field reporting alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at lending loan officers, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Automated Field Reporter for Lending is a vision model aimed at lending loan officers, covering field reporting. It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by timing (86) and held back by open field (31). Typical pricing is $1.1k–$12k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $5.5k–$18k.
Lending teams lose reports typed up in a truck cab after a ten-hour day. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Point a vision model at field reporting, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is flat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Multimodal models now read a photo of a worksite without custom training. Lending is growing at roughly 12% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The buying cycle is slower than the build, so runway assumptions matter more than code.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
