Point a retrieval engine at training & competency, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at legal ops teams, so the work stops following people home.
In short: Legal Competency Tracker on Retrieval is a retrieval engine aimed at legal ops managers, covering training & competency. It scores 77/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (96) and held back by feasibility (49). Typical pricing is $1.3k–$27k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $39k–$102k.
Legal teams lose certifications that expire before anyone notices. 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.
A narrow retrieval engine scoped to training & competency alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is seat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Retrieval over private documents became cheap enough to run per query. Legal is growing at roughly 12% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
