A retrieval engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes knowledge capture. Aimed at recruiting agency owners, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Recruiting Knowledge Base is a retrieval engine aimed at recruiting agency owners, covering knowledge capture. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (96) and held back by open field (30). Typical pricing is $3.9k–$84k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $13k–$42k.
Recruiting teams lose twenty years of know-how walking out at retirement. A typical recruiting operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
Point a retrieval engine at knowledge capture, and let people review output instead of producing it. 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. Recruiting is growing at roughly 15% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
Accuracy is unforgiving here — one wrong output costs more than the subscription.
