Equipment rental teams lose a 900-page document read by someone billing $300 an hour. In most equipment rental businesses this job has never had software written for it. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
A narrow retrieval engine scoped to document review alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
