It scores 75/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (94) and held back by open field (43).

Hospitality teams lose an audit prepared in a two-week panic every year. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Point a retrieval engine at compliance audit, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is flat saas, 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. Hospitality is growing at roughly 12% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| 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 |
The incumbent is a person, and displacing a person is a change-management problem.
