Automation
Bounded reminders and next steps, always under founder control.
FounderPilot automates guidance, reminders, and explanations. Sensitive actions require founder approval, official sync is pending, and auto-submission is not included.
Current automation focus
Stage-aware next step
Review formation path readiness.

Why this action?

Founder approval, snooze, dismiss, and reminder preference state

No automation-specific sensitive file storage outside document boundaries
PostgreSQL
Structured triggers, trigger explanations, approval history, reminder rules, and source metadata
Recommendation history, expert review escalation records, official sync placeholders, and audit-safe activity logs
AI boundaries
Automation triggers are deterministic before any AI-assisted wording is considered.
Future reasoning support may help with reminder wording, startup-stage explanation, and uncertainty notes.
Future retrieval support may help with document-triggered automation, OCR-based trigger detection, and source grounding.
AI must not create autonomous actions, bypass founder approval, create hidden triggers, create fake urgency, claim official verification, claim legal/tax certainty, or replace expert review.
