Point a document parser at document review, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at construction project managers, writing down what only one person knows.
In short: Construction Document Reviewer on Extraction is a document parser aimed at construction project managers, covering document review. It scores 82/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by feasibility (95) and held back by monetisation (62). Typical pricing is $1.0k–$11k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.5k–$9.0k.
Construction teams lose a 900-page document read by someone billing $300 an hour. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A document parser that handles document review end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is flat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Document parsing stopped needing per-layout templates. Construction is growing at roughly 20% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
