Shift handover handled by a workflow engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Aimed at home care schedulers, going after the low-value tail everyone else skips.
In short: Workflow Handover Recorder for Home care is a workflow engine aimed at home care schedulers, covering shift handover. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (92) and held back by moat (38). Typical pricing is $4.5k–$68k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a month for $5.0k–$17k.
Home care teams lose a whiteboard that loses half of what the last crew knew. Every home care team solves this the same way: someone stays late. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
Point a workflow engine at shift handover, and let people review output instead of producing it. Revenue is data subscription, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
