Executive Summary

Many SMBs—roughly 7 million businesses—today rely on complex, expensive form vendors for liability waivers and consent forms, which creates high per-location costs, lengthy setup, and poor mobile UX. Front‑desk staff at gyms, adventure parks, clinics and contractors lose time and expose their organizations to compliance risk when they must use paper or app‑dependent solutions that aren't legally robust. You could build a lightweight, mobile‑first digital waiver platform that requires no app, provides secure e‑signatures, tamper‑proof audit trails, customizable templates, and simple per‑location pricing aimed squarely at SMBs. Prioritize HTTPS/TLS, exportable legal‑grade records, optional HIPAA/PCI controls where needed, and plug‑and‑play integrations (Zapier, POS, booking systems) so businesses can deploy in minutes. The market is attractive now — an addressable opportunity of about $5.6B (7M businesses × $800 ACV) — because SMBs are digitizing front‑desk workflows, e‑signatures are increasingly legally defensible, and pricing backlash is driving churn away from large vendors. With a market score of 90/100 and revenue potential of 82/100, a low‑cost, transparent alternative can capture price‑sensitive customers quickly if execution is disciplined. You can stand out through extreme simplicity, transparent low total cost of ownership, and legally defensible audit trails—positioning the product as “secure, auditable waivers in 60 seconds” versus feature‑heavy enterprise suites. The main challenges are high competition and the need to build trust, certifications, and channel partnerships fast, but unit economics look promising if acquisition and churn are tightly controlled.
