AI School-Based SLP IDEA Compliance Tracker

Markets that didn't exist until people started doing something new
One-Liner
Monitors each student's IEP-mandated therapy minutes vs. minutes delivered and flags compliance gaps and re-evaluation deadlines for school-based SLPs.
Kill Reason
Frontline Education and Therapy Brands already provide IEP compliance tracking with therapy minute monitoring as core features for school-based specialists — this is a well-funded category with entrenched district-level purchasing relationships, and displacing incumbents with a narrow-purpose tool would require procurement cycles that no early-stage product can survive.

killed: The CMS rule change effective January 1, 2024 moved the majority of Medicare Part D DIR fees to point-of-sale, directly addressing the retrospective exposure problem this product was designed to quantify. Building a DIR fee tracker after the primary regulatory driver has been neutralized means chasing a declining problem in a heavily regulated sector where pharmacy benefit managers and enterprise pharmacy software vendors are the natural owners of any remaining analytics needs.
killed: Leading physical therapy platforms (WebPT, Clinicient, Raintree) already ship AI-assisted documentation and Medicare billing templates. The specific Medicare functional status distinction this tool targets will be absorbed by these incumbents as a feature update, with no room for a standalone product to establish switching costs first.
killed: Automated veterinary follow-up communication is already offered by PetDesk, VitusVet, and practice management platforms such as AVImark and Cornerstone. The diagnosis-keyed personalization layer adds marginal differentiation that incumbents will replicate as a routine feature update, leaving no defensible position for a standalone product.
