A workflow engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes invoicing. Aimed at last-mile delivery ops teams, going after the low-value tail everyone else skips.
In short: Workflow Invoice Engine for Last-mile delivery is a workflow engine aimed at last-mile delivery ops managers, covering invoicing. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (93) and held back by timing (23). Typical pricing is $4.6k–$98k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.0k–$6.0k.
Last-mile delivery teams lose invoices assembled from four systems by hand. It is the kind of task that is too small to fund and too costly to ignore. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
Invoicing handled by a workflow engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The incumbent is a person, and displacing a person is a change-management problem.
