Reports

What happened, what the team learned, and what it needs from you, with every sentence traced.

01What it is

A report covers one week, or the full plan at its review. Failures come first, then each channel, what was learned, the learnings tested and applied, next week, what the team needs from you, and money to the cent. With the brand kit on, the report opens on a cover in your brand: the logo and the kit's main colour as the kit stood when the report was written.

02Why it exists

A report that only says what went well is an advertisement. This one leads with what failed, reports silence as a fact ("sent, no replies"), and never shows a vanity number without the outcome beside it.

Every sentence carries the rows it came from. Open any sentence to see its evidence; where a row has a screen, the evidence links to it. A report with a sentence that traces to nothing does not go out.

03How to use it

  1. 01Read the headline, then what went wrong.
  2. 02Open a sentence’s evidence when a number surprises you.
  3. 03Answer what the team needs from you from the team screen.
  4. 04Use the button on the reports list to write this week’s report before your report day.
  5. 05Where venture memory is on, press Why this? to see what the report used from your venture memory and the Almanac.
  6. 06With website analytics on, the report gains a Website and journey section: revenue by channel and who is hot right now.
  7. 07With live answers on, the report is drawn from the same parts as an answer: four numbers, your goal report by report, each channel as a card, and a checklist of what it needs from you that you clear on the page. Evidence opens in a sheet beside the sentence.
  8. 08On Done With You, the founder reviews each report before it reaches you. Until then it is not listed and its page says it is with the founder. After the review window it arrives anyway, marked as not reviewed yet.

No worked example here

No founder has received a weekly report from the AI GTM team yet, so there is no real report to show. The first real one replaces this note.
