A retrieval engine that handles proposal writing end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at dental office managers, surfacing the exposure nobody has priced.
In short: Proposal Builder Built for Office Managers is a retrieval engine aimed at dental office managers, covering proposal writing. It scores 78/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (90) and held back by feasibility (31). Typical pricing is $5.4k–$115k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $41k–$119k.
Dental teams lose proposals rebuilt from scratch that are 80% identical. A typical dental operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A retrieval engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes proposal writing. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Retrieval over private documents became cheap enough to run per query. Dental is growing at roughly 14% 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 |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
