Point a workflow engine at onboarding, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at accounting partners, proving value before anyone signs anything.
In short: Onboarding Flow Built for Partners is a workflow engine aimed at accounting partners, covering onboarding. It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (91) and held back by open field (28). Typical pricing is $4.3k–$91k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $7.0k–$22k.
Accounting teams lose a 40-step checklist living in one person’s head. A typical accounting operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
A workflow engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes onboarding. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| 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 |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
