Executive Summary

Many small and mid-market businesses experience sudden bank or payments account freezes that halt payroll and cashflow, and founders or finance teams are left navigating opaque support channels for days or weeks. This is a widespread pain: roughly 2 million business banking customers represent an addressable market of about $6.0B (2M × $3K ACV) for remediation services. You could build a guided remediation platform that detects freezes via open banking APIs and webhooks, automatically gathers and organizes transaction metadata, KYC documents and correspondence, and generates standardized appeal packages and step‑by‑step playbooks. The product would combine automated evidence collection with optional white‑glove escalation to specialists or templated legal responses to reduce time‑to-resolution. The market is attractive now because neo‑banks and fintech processors are rapidly expanding business banking (increasing absolute freeze incidents), regulatory AML/KYC scrutiny is intensifying, and richer APIs make automated detection and evidence collection feasible. Market and revenue potential scores of 88/100 reflect strong commercial upside if execution is disciplined. You can stand out by delivering measurable time and cost savings through automation, standardized documentation templates accepted by banks, and partnerships or SLAs with processors, but expect real challenges: banks may resist integrations, compliance and data security are critical, and you’ll need early pilot partners to prove efficacy.
