A workflow engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes shift handover. Aimed at freight brokerage dispatchers, catching the error before it becomes a change order.
In short: Handover Recorder Built for Dispatchers is a workflow engine aimed at freight brokerage dispatchers, covering shift handover. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (93) and held back by timing (38). Typical pricing is $9.3k–$140k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $40k–$122k.
Freight brokerage teams lose a whiteboard that loses half of what the last crew knew. In most freight brokerage businesses this job has never had software written for it. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
Point a workflow engine at shift handover, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
