A document parser that handles incident reporting end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at agriculture growers, built for one person, not a department.
In short: Extraction Incident Recorder for Agriculture is a document parser aimed at agriculture growers, covering incident reporting. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (86) and held back by feasibility (56). Typical pricing is $4.3k–$65k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $16k–$54k.
Agriculture teams lose incidents written up days later from memory. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A document parser that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes incident reporting. Revenue is data subscription, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Document parsing stopped needing per-layout templates. Agriculture is growing at roughly 22% 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 |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
The buying cycle is slower than the build, so runway assumptions matter more than code.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
