A narrow retrieval engine scoped to compliance audit alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at government ops teams, built for one person, not a department.
In short: Compliance Auditor for Government, Run by Retrieval is a retrieval engine aimed at government ops managers, covering compliance audit. It scores 76/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (95) and held back by feasibility (35). Typical pricing is $5.7k–$122k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $32k–$100k.
Government teams lose an audit prepared in a two-week panic every year. A typical government operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
Compliance audit handled by a retrieval engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Retrieval over private documents became cheap enough to run per query. Government is growing at roughly 10% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
The incumbent is a person, and displacing a person is a change-management problem.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
