Risk assessment handled by a retrieval engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at construction project managers, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Retrieval-Powered Risk Scorer for Project Managers is a retrieval engine aimed at construction project managers, covering risk assessment. It scores 78/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by timing (91) and held back by feasibility (53). Typical pricing is $4.4k–$93k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $32k–$95k.
Construction teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A retrieval engine that handles risk assessment end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
Integrations with the incumbent system of record are undocumented and gatekept.
