A document parser that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes inspection. Aimed at architecture principals, at a tenth of what the enterprise suite charges.
In short: Automated Inspection Assistant for Architecture is a document parser aimed at architecture principals, covering inspection. It scores 74/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by feasibility (87) and held back by demand (52). Typical pricing is $1.0k–$20k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.5k–$6.0k.
Architecture teams lose inspections written up twice — once on paper, once at night. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
A document parser that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes inspection. 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. Architecture 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 internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
