What the five commandments measure
C — Control
Do you own the customer, or does a gatekeeper stand between you and revenue?
E — Entry
How hard is this to copy once it works? A rival's existence isn't the question — the durability of their advantage is.
N — Need
Is demand proven with money rather than vibes?
T — Time
Can income detach from your hours, or did you buy yourself a job?
S — Scale
How far does it reach without linear cost?
Scored on the evidence below, against CENTS as we've adapted it plus a Buffett-style moat reading of every rival — the same referee for every idea, including the ones we generate ourselves. The verdict follows the arithmetic: we never relabel a score to make it read better, and the weakest commandment is always named. The exact rubric stays in-house so the scale can't be written for.
02 — The pace test — $1M/yr
At $49/mo (assumed category price), you need 1,701 subscribers for a $1M/yr pace.
Nearest tracked rivals on that curve:

Part II — The Evidence the receipts, good and bad
03 — Rival scan — corpus tracks 1 similar, 1 stalled under $2k MRR
Host agencies may already get commission tracking bundled free from their consortium/network.
Advisors are price-sensitive solo operators with historically low SaaS willingness-to-pay.
Money-accuracy product: one wrong 'paid' flag destroys trust and churns the account.
06 — Kill switches — what kills this with one decision
Google Gmail restricted-scope / CASA review — Denied or revoked read access kills automatic inbox parsing overnight.
Supplier or GDS terms on confirmation data — A supplier prohibiting automated parsing of its confirmations removes the core data feed.
Host agency networks bundling tracking free — Single distribution decision by a large host removes your buyer base.
Part III — The Plan if you insist on proceeding
07 — What this scan can't tell you
Cannot verify what advisors currently pay for back-office tools — no pricing evidence in corpus.
Cannot assess parser accuracy achievable across real supplier email variety.
Cannot tell whether the buyer is the individual advisor or the host agency.
Scores judge the market and business model — not your ability to execute. Verified MRR = independently tracked revenue; reviews/upvotes = platform-reported. Judged 2026-08-30.
08 — The wedge & the next step
Commission reconciliation only — no booking, no CRM: forward confirmations, get an owed/paid/overdue ledger the host agency can audit.
Cheapest next step: Collect 30 real supplier confirmation emails from five advisors and hand-test parse accuracy plus their current tool spend.
