A narrow reconciliation engine scoped to payroll verification alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at insurance brokers, surfacing the exposure nobody has priced.
In short: Automated Payroll Verifier for Insurance is a reconciliation engine aimed at insurance brokers, covering payroll verification. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (95) and held back by timing (38). Typical pricing is $15k–$228k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $6.5k–$19k.
Insurance teams lose payroll errors found by the employee, not the system. Every insurance team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
Payroll verification handled by a reconciliation engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
