A narrow classifier scoped to customer support alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at staffing schedulers, finding what the inspector would find, first.
In short: Staffing Support Agent is a classifier aimed at staffing schedulers, covering customer support. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (90) and held back by timing (49). Typical pricing is $4.4k–$94k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$5.0k.
Staffing teams lose the same forty questions answered by a human every day. Every staffing team solves this the same way: someone stays late. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
Customer support handled by a classifier, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Classification quality crossed the threshold where a human stops double-checking. Staffing is growing at roughly 14% 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 |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
Integrations with the incumbent system of record are undocumented and gatekept.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
