A narrow voice agent scoped to incident reporting alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at food production ops teams, writing down what only one person knows.

It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (88) and held back by feasibility (44).

Food production teams lose incidents written up days later from memory. Every food production team solves this the same way: someone stays late. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
A voice agent that handles incident reporting end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
