Point a retrieval engine at risk assessment, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at fintech cfos, at a tenth of what the enterprise suite charges.
In short: Fintech Risk Scorer on Retrieval is a retrieval engine aimed at fintech cfos, covering risk assessment. It scores 78/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (95) and held back by open field (23). Typical pricing is $5.9k–$125k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $29k–$102k.
Fintech teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. A typical fintech operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Risk assessment handled by a retrieval engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Retrieval over private documents became cheap enough to run per query. Fintech is growing at roughly 17% 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 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 |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
