It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (93) and held back by demand (37).

Funeral services teams lose a 900-page document read by someone billing $300 an hour. In most funeral services businesses this job has never had software written for it. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
A narrow retrieval engine scoped to document review alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| 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 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.
