A B2B service that conducts weekly recorded interviews with department heads, uses AI to extract key insights, and delivers a structured internal podcast and newsletter to company leadership.

01 THE IDEA

Most companies suffer from poor internal communication — CEOs don't know what's happening across teams, and valuable institutional knowledge stays siloed. This service solves that by sending an interviewer (or a Slackbot prompt) to department heads every Friday, recording 10–15 minute conversations about wins, blockers, and key learnings, then using AI transcription and summarization to produce a polished internal podcast episode and written summary delivered to the whole company via Slack or email.

The value proposition for CEOs is clear: spend one hour on Sunday morning listening to five-minute department recaps instead of scheduling 10 separate sync meetings. At $5,000+/month per client, targeting companies at the 30–200 employee inflection point where communication breakdown begins, this is a productized agency that can scale with a small team of interviewers and an AI content pipeline. Slack/Teams bot integration makes it sticky and deeply embedded in workflow.

03 THE VERDICT

This hits a real and growing pain point — CEOs at 30–200 person companies are flying blind on what their teams are actually doing. At $5K/month with 10 clients you're at $600K ARR with a tiny team. The AI pipeline makes delivery scalable, and the Slack/Teams integration creates switching costs. The biggest challenge is proving ROI in the sales process, but the 'Saturday morning coffee recap' framing is a powerful, concrete value proposition.
