A document parser that handles intake & triage end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at architecture project architects, unbundling the one module people actually use.
In short: Extraction Intake Triage for Architecture is a document parser aimed at architecture project architects, covering intake & triage. It scores 75/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by timing (88) and held back by open field (67). Typical pricing is $1.9k–$39k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $14k–$40k.
Architecture teams lose the front-desk queue that swallows 6 hours a week. In most architecture businesses this job has never had software written for it. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
Point a document parser at intake & triage, 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.

Document parsing stopped needing per-layout templates. Architecture is growing at roughly 15% 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 |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
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.
