Appreciate it!

Great feedback, I'll work on the video ASAP. I intended to immediately create a follow-up video that steps through each component of a newly created decision, got distracted, never circled back.

This is a good nudge to choose the grammatically correct option, thank you.

I originally had "less meetings" before an LLM corrected me into using "fewer meetings". Then when talking about Orgtools to a couple people I heard them say "less meetings" and switched back thinking that sounds slightly more natural (but incorrect).

I'm building decision-making software: https://orgtools.com

Not sure what the market is for something like this but it's something I've been thinking a lot about since stepping down as CEO of my previous company.

My goal is two-fold:

1. Help teams make better, faster decisions with all context populating a source-of-truth.

2. Help leaders stay eyes-on, and circumstantially hands-on, without slowing everything down. What I'd hope to be an effective version of "Founder Mode".

If anybody wants to play around with it, here's a link to my staging environment:

For anybody that just wants to play around with my staging environment / try out the decision builder without any setup here's a link:

I co-founded Ambition (YC W14) and have spent the last 10 years serving as CEO before stepping down in December.

Upon hitting ~50 employees, started to think more about the push/pull between alignment and velocity. How can we maintain effective "founder mode" as we scale?

One of the first things to slow down was decision-making. Who should be involved? In what capacity? Is this worth a meeting? Turns out it's a painful process getting a start-up to even consider, let alone adopt, something like RASCI... even with growing frustration that things are taking too long.

So I decided to try and build decision-making software that might have helped, something that would have introduced incremental process in a more palatable way.

While there's certainly overlap with Slack, Notion, etc... in my head there's still a real need for something like this but I'm curious what you (and the market) think.

Thank you in advance for any thoughts, feedback, tough love.
