A retrieval engine that handles contract analysis end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at solar owner-operators, holding service constant on a smaller team.
In short: Contract Analyser Built for Owner-Operators is a retrieval engine aimed at solar owner-operators, covering contract analysis. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (92) and held back by feasibility (31). Typical pricing is $4.0k–$86k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $41k–$141k.
Solar teams lose renewal terms nobody re-read before signing. Every solar team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
Point a retrieval engine at contract analysis, 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.

Retrieval over private documents became cheap enough to run per query. 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 |
|---|---|
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
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.
Score problem urgency, willingness to pay, and reachable audience size before writing any code.
→ AltF IdeaLabAsk how they handle this today and what it costs them. If nobody can quantify the pain, the demand score is optimistic.
→ Survey BuilderCheck availability, DNS, and email authentication in one pass so your first outreach lands in an inbox.
→ AltF DomainOpsStand up intake, the review queue, and billing before you build the clever part.
