Founder perspective on AI in company ops
Representative of founder-ops threads — replacing the Monday deck with a Claude-generated WBR that ingests Stripe, Mixpanel, and the support CSV, then narrates what changed and what to ask about.
“I don't want charts. I want the three questions I should ask in the meeting.”
How to replicate
- 1.Export last week's metrics as CSVs from every source (billing, product, support).
- 2.Concatenate into a single attachment; feed to Claude with a WBR template.
Prompt template
You are preparing my weekly business review. Data: <CSVs>. Produce: (1) 5-line narrative of what happened this week vs last. (2) Three anomalies with metric, magnitude, and one hypothesis each — flag if data is insufficient. (3) Three questions I should ask my team on Monday. No charts. No filler. If something is flat, say 'flat.'
Pitfall
Accepting an 'anomaly' without checking the denominator. Models flag noise as signal on small bases — always ask for magnitude and base rate.
