A document parser that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes knowledge capture. Aimed at public safety ops teams, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Public safety Knowledge Base on Extraction is a document parser aimed at public safety ops managers, covering knowledge capture. It scores 73/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (93) and held back by demand (51). Typical pricing is $900–$9.0k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $14k–$39k.
Public safety teams lose twenty years of know-how walking out at retirement. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
Knowledge capture handled by a document parser, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is flat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Document parsing stopped needing per-layout templates. Public safety is growing at roughly 14% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
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.
Score problem urgency, willingness to pay, and reachable audience size before writing any code.
