A document parser that handles compliance audit end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at solar ops teams, closing the loop while everyone is asleep.
In short: Compliance Auditor for Solar, Run by Extraction is a document parser aimed at solar ops managers, covering compliance audit. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (89) and held back by moat (26). Typical pricing is $3.9k–$84k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $5.0k–$17k.
Solar teams lose an audit prepared in a two-week panic every year. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
Point a document parser at compliance audit, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Document parsing stopped needing per-layout templates. Solar is growing at roughly 24% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| 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 |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
