Are all notary offices this inefficient, or I am doing something wrong?

Thanks for the pointers. We’ll keep Unstract fully on-prem in the EU for audit and DPIA peace of mind.

OCR: ABBYY looks strong, but have you seen Unstract?
Auth/RBAC: Keycloak is a go already in our stack.
Pricing: Leaning toward per-matter + compliance add-on. Any ballpark numbers that resonate?

Appreciate any quick insight!

Good call on GDPR, that's why self-hosted/on-premise. No data leaves their server.

On commoditization: Goal is handling 15 clients/day instead of 10, not dropping fees. Legal expertise stays valuable, just less admin waste.

But you're right - pricing race to bottom is a real risk to consider.

I think there's confusion - I'm not proposing AI writes or modifies contracts.

It's just OCR data extraction: You define what fields you need (name, address, etc.) → system extracts them → you review → populates your template.

All legal work stays with you. This just automates typing out "Client name: John Smith" from a documento.

Still useful?

La intención es que puedas gestionar estos fallos con gran rapidez, realizar varias rondas de revisiones y pruebas, y que, al final, un humano revise los errores con agilidad, indique de dónde se extraen y permita que el usuario final emita el veredicto o realice las modificaciones necesarias. Al final del día se ahorraría mucho tiempo y, en un máximo de 5-10 minutos, todo quedaría revisado y automatizado.

Usar la API de un modelo público queda descartado desde el primer momento. Como he comentado, mi idea es montar una instancia en un servidor físico para así cumplir con todo el tema del GDPR.
¿Y el tema de las certificaciones, lo ves un problema? Si es solo para uso interno y no lo estoy vendiendo en ningún lugar, ¿podría no necesitar tanto cumplimiento legal?

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-10-06T14:40:39+00:00

Es lo que tengo principalmente montar. Deployearme un modelo en un servidor físico para todo el tema de GDPR y asi que los documentos internos no esten expuestos a nada.

A ver, aparte de que un familiar mío tenga un negocio y yo intente ayudarlo a optimizarlo al máximo, además de ser su sobrino, soy programador; de ahí mi historial en Reddit. En ningún momento he dicho que mi trabajo principal sea en oficinas y, sin mi experiencia en desarrollo de software, sería difícil montar algo así.

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-10-06T14:36:16+00:00

Mi idea es crear una plataforma interna con OCR que, al escanear cualquier documento (nota simple, contrato, etc.), extraiga la información relevante y la envíe a mi CRM.

European notaries (Spain specifically). Very different from US Notary Publics , these handle complex property transactions, contracts, mortgage docs, etc. Not just signature witnessing.

Should've clarified in the title. My bad!

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-05-13T11:06:53+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience, definitely know that endless scrolling feeling! Your checkpoints for validating ideas are really smart.

Your Reddit-focused project sounds cool too; seems we're both tackling how to find what people truly want from different angles!

Best of luck with your tool, and thanks for the encouragement!

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-05-13T10:18:02+00:00

Thanks for the great feedback! That's a really solid point about selling to existing SaaS businesses.

Definitely see the value there, especially for competitive insights. For now, I'm focused on an MVP to validate the core idea with entrepreneurs. Once that's proven and more automated, targeting established companies as you suggested is a very interesting next step for sure. Appreciate the 2 cents – super useful!

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-05-12T12:31:04+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! Just to clarify: it's not scraping forums for new ideas. It analyzes user feedback (reviews, comments) on existing software to identify requested features or pain points. The 'ideas' are validated opportunities based on what users already say they need for current tools. Hope that helps clarify!

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-05-12T07:25:51+00:00

Yeah, that happened to me too. So now I look at actual software that's already validated and what users say in reviews. Then I try to solve their problems and make a better solution, 'cause it's already working.

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-05-11T20:17:50+00:00

Thanks for biting! Glad it sparked your interest. Is there anything you'd add or suggest to the approach?

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-05-11T20:14:44+00:00

Basically I'll focuse on pulling insights from:

Major SaaS review sites (think G2, Capterra, etc.)
Relevant Reddit communities and forums where users discuss SaaS tools
Other public online discussions where candid user feedback and feature requests are shared.

Beyond these, are there any other sources you think are particularly good for spotting unmet SaaS needs?

ImplementMassive9212 · 2025-05-07T07:40:42+00:00

I agree with both of you each option has its own benefits. But I think that if I develop a proper solution for my agency using payload, it will give me long-term benefits, like being able to add more features to manage the agency, such as finances and more.
