Point a retrieval engine at risk assessment, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at wholesale inventory planners, so the work stops following people home.

It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (92) and held back by feasibility (34). Typical pricing is $4.0k–$60k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $30k–$97k.
Wholesale teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. Every wholesale team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
