Site selection handled by a geospatial model, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at pest control dispatchers, closing the loop while everyone is asleep.
In short: Geospatial Site Scorer for Pest control is a geospatial model aimed at pest control dispatchers, covering site selection. It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (95) and held back by timing (49). Typical pricing is $1.9k–$39k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $16k–$54k.
Pest control teams lose location decisions made on instinct and a drive-by. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A geospatial model that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes site selection. Revenue is usage-based, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Satellite and census-linked data became licensable at startup prices. Pest control is growing at roughly 13% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
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.
