Warranty & returns handled by a document parser, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at last-mile delivery ops teams, starting from data the business already produces.

It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (94) and held back by open field (39). Typical pricing is $4.4k–$67k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $4.5k–$16k.
Last-mile delivery teams lose warranty claims processed on a spreadsheet and a hope. A typical last-mile delivery operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
A narrow document parser scoped to warranty & returns alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is data subscription, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
Accuracy is unforgiving here — one wrong output costs more than the subscription.
