Payroll verification handled by a reconciliation engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at real estate owner-operators, unbundling the one module people actually use.
In short: Payroll Verifier for Real estate Owner-Operators is a reconciliation engine aimed at real estate owner-operators, covering payroll verification. It scores 75/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (91) and held back by open field (23). Typical pricing is $1.5k–$29k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.5k–$8.0k.
Real estate teams lose payroll errors found by the employee, not the system. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
Point a reconciliation engine at payroll verification, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is seat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Systems that never talked now expose APIs by default. 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 |
|---|---|
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
The buying cycle is slower than the build, so runway assumptions matter more than code.
