Compliance audit handled by a retrieval engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at security services field supervisors, built for one person, not a department.

It scores 78/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (95) and held back by monetisation (48).

Security services teams lose an audit prepared in a two-week panic every year. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
A retrieval engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes compliance audit. Revenue is usage-based, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| 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 |
