A document parser that handles shift handover end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at travel account leads, surfacing the exposure nobody has priced.

Travel teams lose a whiteboard that loses half of what the last crew knew. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Shift handover handled by a document parser, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|

| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
Integrations with the incumbent system of record are undocumented and gatekept.
