Site selection handled by an optimisation engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at home care agency owners, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Home care Site Scorer on Optimisation is an optimisation engine aimed at home care agency owners, covering site selection. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (91) and held back by feasibility (21). Typical pricing is $4.0k–$86k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $30k–$89k.
Home care teams lose location decisions made on instinct and a drive-by. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
Point an optimisation engine at site selection, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Solver capacity that once needed a research budget now runs on commodity hardware. 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 |
|---|---|
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
