A narrow vision model scoped to inspection alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at solar ops teams, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Vision Inspection Assistant for Solar is a vision model aimed at solar ops managers, covering inspection. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (97) and held back by feasibility (24). Typical pricing is $4.3k–$92k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $41k–$106k.
Solar teams lose inspections written up twice — once on paper, once at night. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.

| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
Accuracy is unforgiving here — one wrong output costs more than the subscription.
