This is probably somewhat obvious, but one can sprout seeds in wet paper towels or similar, you can put them on top of the other and place them in a thin walled container, which can be put on top of any heat source, like a radiator. you just need to 'water' them every day.
After 4-7 days the peppers started sprouting roots, I moved them to the final trays. There it takes about 4-5 days more to fully emerge from the soil. Space efficient and imo quite work efficient.
