It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (92) and held back by feasibility (43).

Public safety teams lose defects caught by the customer instead of the line. 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.
A forecasting model that handles quality control 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.

| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
Integrations with the incumbent system of record are undocumented and gatekept.
