Point a forecasting model at dispatch, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at veterinary technicians, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Forecasting Dispatch for Veterinary is a forecasting model aimed at veterinary technicians, covering dispatch. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (89) and held back by feasibility (47). Typical pricing is $3.2k–$85k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $40k–$127k.
Veterinary teams lose routing decisions made from memory at 6am. Every veterinary team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
A forecasting model that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes dispatch. Revenue is per-vehicle, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Forecasting that used to need a data team now runs on off-the-shelf models. Veterinary is growing at roughly 16% 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 |
| 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.
