Point a document parser at incident reporting, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at logistics dispatchers, closing the loop while everyone is asleep.
In short: Automated Incident Recorder for Logistics is a document parser aimed at logistics dispatchers, covering incident reporting. It scores 75/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by feasibility (96) and held back by open field (49). Typical pricing is $1.5k–$29k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$5.0k.
Logistics teams lose incidents written up days later from memory. In most logistics businesses this job has never had software written for it. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
A document parser that handles incident reporting end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is seat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Document parsing stopped needing per-layout templates. Logistics is growing at roughly 15% 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 |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
