A retrieval engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes risk assessment. Aimed at food production ops teams, so the work stops following people home.
In short: Risk Scorer Built for Ops Teams is a retrieval engine aimed at food production ops managers, covering risk assessment. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by timing (85) and held back by monetisation (47). Typical pricing is $900–$10k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $4.5k–$12k.
Food production teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
A retrieval engine that handles risk assessment end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is flat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |

| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
