A narrow vision model scoped to asset tracking alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at utilities compliance leads, closing the loop while everyone is asleep.
In short: Utilities Asset Tracker on Vision is a vision model aimed at utilities compliance leads, covering asset tracking. It scores 77/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (95) and held back by feasibility (59). Typical pricing is $4.9k–$105k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $14k–$45k.
Utilities teams lose equipment located by asking around. 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.
A vision model that handles asset tracking end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Multimodal models now read a photo of a worksite without custom training. Utilities is growing at roughly 11% 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 offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
The buying cycle is slower than the build, so runway assumptions matter more than code.
