Point an anomaly detector at risk assessment, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at freight brokerage dispatchers, writing down what only one person knows.

It scores 75/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (92) and held back by feasibility (36).

Freight brokerage teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
Risk assessment handled by an anomaly detector, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is managed service, 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 |
| 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 |
Accuracy is unforgiving here — one wrong output costs more than the subscription.
