Point a classifier at customer support, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at construction ops teams, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Construction Support Agent is a classifier aimed at construction ops managers, covering customer support. It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by feasibility (94) and held back by moat (39). Typical pricing is $1.0k–$20k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$6.0k.
Construction teams lose the same forty questions answered by a human every day. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A narrow classifier scoped to customer support alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is seat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Classification quality crossed the threshold where a human stops double-checking. 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 |
|---|---|
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
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.
