A classifier that handles customer support end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at agriculture growers, finding what the inspector would find, first.
In short: Support Agent for Agriculture, Run by Classification is a classifier aimed at agriculture growers, covering customer support. It scores 76/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (96) and held back by timing (41). Typical pricing is $13k–$199k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$6.0k.
Agriculture teams lose the same forty questions answered by a human every day. Every agriculture team solves this the same way: someone stays late. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
Customer support handled by a classifier, 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.

Classification quality crossed the threshold where a human stops double-checking. Agriculture is growing at roughly 22% 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 |
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
