Point a retrieval engine at knowledge capture, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at fintech compliance leads, unbundling the one module people actually use.

It scores 76/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by timing (94) and held back by open field (24). Typical pricing is $3.5k–$70k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$6.0k.
Fintech teams lose twenty years of know-how walking out at retirement. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
A retrieval engine that handles knowledge capture end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is usage-based, 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. Fintech is growing at roughly 17% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
The buying cycle is slower than the build, so runway assumptions matter more than code.
