Incident reporting handled by a workflow engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at warehousing ops teams, charging only when it actually works.
In short: Incident Recorder for Warehousing Ops Teams is a workflow engine aimed at warehousing ops managers, covering incident reporting. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (93) and held back by timing (25). Typical pricing is $10k–$153k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $12k–$37k.
Warehousing teams lose incidents written up days later from memory. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
A workflow engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes incident reporting. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
