A forecasting model that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes risk assessment. Aimed at home care agency owners, closing the loop while everyone is asleep.
In short: Risk Scorer for Home care, Run by Forecasting is a forecasting model aimed at home care agency owners, covering risk assessment. It scores 75/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (95) and held back by feasibility (43). Typical pricing is $800–$9.0k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $33k–$93k.
Home care teams lose risk scored by whoever is free that afternoon. Every home care team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
A narrow forecasting model scoped to risk assessment alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is flat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Forecasting that used to need a data team now runs on off-the-shelf models. Home care is growing at roughly 20% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
