Maintenance planning handled by an anomaly detector, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at real estate brokers, catching the error before it becomes a change order.
In short: Maintenance Planner for Real estate Brokers is an anomaly detector aimed at real estate brokers, covering maintenance planning. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (90) and held back by open field (26). Typical pricing is $4.1k–$87k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $5.0k–$12k.
Real estate teams lose maintenance done on a calendar rather than on condition. Every real estate team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
An anomaly detector that handles maintenance planning end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Streaming detection became practical without a dedicated data platform. Real estate is growing at roughly 13% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
The incumbent is a person, and displacing a person is a change-management problem.
