A classifier that handles intake & triage end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at last-mile delivery dispatchers, charging only when it actually works.
In short: Last-mile delivery Intake Triage is a classifier aimed at last-mile delivery dispatchers, covering intake & triage. It scores 77/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (96) and held back by open field (32). Typical pricing is $1.3k–$27k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$6.0k.
Last-mile delivery teams lose the front-desk queue that swallows 19 hours a week. A typical last-mile delivery operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
Point a classifier at intake & triage, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is seat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Classification quality crossed the threshold where a human stops double-checking. Last-mile delivery is growing at roughly 21% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
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.
→ AltF IdeaLabAsk how they handle this today and what it costs them. If nobody can quantify the pain, the demand score is optimistic.
→ Survey BuilderCheck availability, DNS, and email authentication in one pass so your first outreach lands in an inbox.
→ AltF DomainOpsStand up intake, the review queue, and billing before you build the clever part.
