A narrow retrieval engine scoped to risk assessment alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at real estate brokers, so the work stops following people home.
In short: Retrieval-Powered Risk Scorer for Brokers is a retrieval engine aimed at real estate brokers, covering risk assessment. It scores 74/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (94) and held back by open field (35). Typical pricing is $1.5k–$30k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $6.0k–$19k.
Real estate teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. A typical real estate operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
A retrieval engine that handles risk assessment end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is seat 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. Real estate is growing at roughly 13% 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 |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
