The premise
AI can draft fractional-executive scope memos that name deliverables, time commitment, decision rights, and exit criteria so the engagement does not silently expand.
What AI does well here
- Translate a vague 'help us with finance' brief into a memo with deliverables and a weekly cadence.
- Generate decision-rights matrices distinguishing recommend, decide, and execute.
What AI cannot do
- Judge cultural fit between the fractional exec and the founding team.
- Replace the trust calibration that comes from working together for a quarter.
