Public safety teams lose twenty years of know-how walking out at retirement. 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.
A retrieval engine that handles knowledge capture end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
