A narrow voice agent scoped to inspection alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at automotive parts managers, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.

It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (93) and held back by feasibility (52). Typical pricing is $11k–$160k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $28k–$84k.
Automotive teams lose inspections written up twice — once on paper, once at night. In most automotive businesses this job has never had software written for it. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
A voice agent that handles inspection end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
