A narrow retrieval engine scoped to grant & funding tracking alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at healthcare department heads, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Grant Tracker for Healthcare Department Heads is a retrieval engine aimed at healthcare department heads, covering grant & funding tracking. It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (96) and held back by feasibility (37). Typical pricing is $7.5k–$112k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $33k–$88k.
Healthcare teams lose reporting deadlines discovered the week they are due. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
Grant & funding tracking handled by a retrieval engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is data subscription, 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. Healthcare is growing at roughly 19% 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 |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
Accuracy is unforgiving here — one wrong output costs more than the subscription.
