A workflow engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes collections. Aimed at waste management ops teams, surfacing the exposure nobody has priced.
In short: Waste management Collections Chaser on Workflow is a workflow engine aimed at waste management ops managers, covering collections. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (96) and held back by timing (52). Typical pricing is $4.5k–$96k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $5.0k–$14k.
Waste management teams lose receivables aging past 90 days because nobody chased. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
Point a workflow engine at collections, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
