It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (91) and held back by timing (61).

Public safety teams lose certifications that expire before anyone notices. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
A forecasting model that handles training & competency end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is usage-based, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
