A document parser that handles pricing end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at real estate brokers, surfacing the exposure nobody has priced.
In short: Pricing Engine for Real estate Brokers is a document parser aimed at real estate brokers, covering pricing. It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (96) and held back by open field (26). Typical pricing is $15k–$224k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $5.0k–$15k.
Real estate teams lose a price list last revised when costs were 30% lower. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
Point a document parser at pricing, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Document parsing stopped needing per-layout templates. 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 spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
