Point a workflow engine at training & competency, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at healthcare department heads, at a tenth of what the enterprise suite charges.
In short: Workflow Competency Tracker for Healthcare is a workflow engine aimed at healthcare department heads, covering training & competency. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (97) and held back by open field (28). Typical pricing is $7.9k–$168k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $17k–$58k.
Healthcare teams lose certifications that expire before anyone notices. In most healthcare businesses this job has never had software written for it. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
A narrow workflow engine scoped to training & competency alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. 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 |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
