A narrow vision model scoped to asset tracking alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at energy ops teams, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Energy Asset Tracker is a vision model aimed at energy ops managers, covering asset tracking. It scores 81/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by timing (96) and held back by open field (56). Typical pricing is $2.4k–$48k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $5.0k–$17k.
Energy teams lose equipment located by asking around. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
Point a vision model at asset tracking, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is usage-based, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Multimodal models now read a photo of a worksite without custom training. Energy is growing at roughly 18% 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 offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
