Point a retrieval engine at training & competency, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at utilities compliance leads, holding service constant on a smaller team.
In short: Competency Tracker Built for Compliance Leads is a retrieval engine aimed at utilities compliance leads, covering training & competency. It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (92) and held back by feasibility (34). Typical pricing is $4.0k–$85k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $34k–$109k.
Utilities teams lose certifications that expire before anyone notices. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
A retrieval engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes training & competency. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
