A retrieval engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes contract analysis. Aimed at waste management ops teams, going after the low-value tail everyone else skips.
In short: Retrieval Contract Analyser for Waste management is a retrieval engine aimed at waste management ops managers, covering contract analysis. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (96) and held back by feasibility (35). Typical pricing is $3.0k–$81k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $28k–$81k.
Waste management teams lose renewal terms nobody re-read before signing. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
Point a retrieval engine at contract analysis, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is per-vehicle, 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. Waste management is growing at roughly 14% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| 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.
