A narrow workflow engine scoped to training & competency alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at insurance brokers, finding what the inspector would find, first.
In short: Competency Tracker Built for Brokers is a workflow engine aimed at insurance brokers, covering training & competency. It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by feasibility (91) and held back by timing (46). Typical pricing is $1.0k–$11k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.5k–$6.0k.
Insurance teams lose certifications that expire before anyone notices. Every insurance team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
A narrow workflow engine scoped to training & competency alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is flat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| 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 |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
