An optimisation engine that handles site selection end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at last-mile delivery ops teams, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Automated Site Scorer for Last-mile delivery is an optimisation engine aimed at last-mile delivery ops managers, covering site selection. It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (94) and held back by feasibility (23). Typical pricing is $4.1k–$88k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $31k–$109k.
Last-mile delivery teams lose location decisions made on instinct and a drive-by. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
An optimisation engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes site selection. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Solver capacity that once needed a research budget now runs on commodity hardware. Last-mile delivery is growing at roughly 21% 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 offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The incumbent is a person, and displacing a person is a change-management problem.
