A narrow workflow engine scoped to shift handover alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at home care agency owners, taking the phone queue off a human entirely.
In short: Home care Handover Recorder on Workflow is a workflow engine aimed at home care agency owners, covering shift handover. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by feasibility (88) and held back by timing (22). Typical pricing is $5.0k–$74k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$7.0k.
Home care teams lose a whiteboard that loses half of what the last crew knew. Every home care team solves this the same way: someone stays late. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Shift handover handled by a workflow 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.

Connectors exist for systems that were closed five years ago. Home care is growing at roughly 20% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| 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.
Score problem urgency, willingness to pay, and reachable audience size before writing any code.
