Point a forecasting model at route planning, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at legal ops teams, going after the low-value tail everyone else skips.
In short: Legal Route Optimiser is a forecasting model aimed at legal ops managers, covering route planning. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (95) and held back by feasibility (30). Typical pricing is $2.5k–$44k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $44k–$133k.
Legal teams lose routes cut once a year and patched ever since. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
Route planning handled by a forecasting model, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-matter, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
