A narrow retrieval engine scoped to risk assessment alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at e-commerce ops teams, closing the loop while everyone is asleep.
In short: Risk Scorer for E-commerce Ops Teams is a retrieval engine aimed at e-commerce ops managers, covering risk assessment. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (96) and held back by open field (23). Typical pricing is $1.4k–$28k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $17k–$45k.
E-commerce 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.
Risk assessment handled by a retrieval engine, with a human signing rather than writing. 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. E-commerce is growing at roughly 16% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
