A forecasting model that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes risk assessment. Aimed at architecture project architects, proving value before anyone signs anything.
In short: Automated Risk Scorer for Architecture is a forecasting model aimed at architecture project architects, covering risk assessment. It scores 75/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (94) and held back by feasibility (56). Typical pricing is $800–$16k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $16k–$51k.
Architecture teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
Point a forecasting model at risk assessment, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is seat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Forecasting that used to need a data team now runs on off-the-shelf models. 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 |
|---|---|
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
Score problem urgency, willingness to pay, and reachable audience size before writing any code.
