Point an optimisation engine at route planning, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at legal solo practitioners, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Legal Route Optimiser is an optimisation engine aimed at legal solo practitioners, covering route planning. It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (93) and held back by feasibility (29). Typical pricing is $4.5k–$96k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $32k–$77k.
Legal teams lose routes cut once a year and patched ever since. A typical legal operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
Point an optimisation engine at route planning, 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.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The incumbent is a person, and displacing a person is a change-management problem.
