A retrieval engine that handles risk assessment end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at logistics dispatchers, at a tenth of what the enterprise suite charges.
In short: Risk Scorer Built for Dispatchers is a retrieval engine aimed at logistics dispatchers, covering risk assessment. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by moat (95) and held back by feasibility (30). Typical pricing is $5.3k–$79k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $36k–$119k.
Logistics teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
Point a retrieval engine at risk assessment, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is data subscription, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
