Run the company.
Not the tabs.
Pillars, tasks, pipeline, KPIs and the data room. One workspace, all of it pointed at the same week.
Apple silicon. Intel Mac.
One loop. Monday to Friday.
Plan in
Three commitments each, hung on a pillar. Three, not ten. The constraint is the feature.
Move the board
Blocked is invalid until it names what it waits on. That is how blocked stops being where tasks go to die.
Read the week
Nobody presents. The overview already says what landed, what slipped and what is blocked, on whom.
A spreadsheet forgets. A doc drifts.
| The question | Spreadsheet | Doc or database | Pillar |
|---|---|---|---|
| This week's plan | A tab someone updates | Honest until Wednesday | Three commitments on a pillar |
| Why it is stuck | A red cell, no reason | A comment from last month | Blocked has to name what it waits on |
| How the week went | Rebuilt by hand | Rebuilt by hand | Already on the overview, live |
| Can an investor open it | Folder archaeology | Link roulette | A data room with review status |
Google Calendar
Rituals and focus blocks land in your own calendar. Meetings land on the workspace one. A focus block and a customer call stop claiming the same hour.
Google Drive
The data room is a real Drive folder. Real files, real links, plus an owner and a review status a diligence process can run against.
Free while you are three.
Every surface on both plans. You pay for seats, never for features.

The boring part, done properly.
One subtree per company
Export, archive or delete a workspace as a single unit.
Tokens encrypted at rest
AES 256 GCM, in a collection no browser is allowed to read.
The narrowest Drive scope
Only the folder Pillar made and the files you hand it. Nothing else.
Data stays in the EU
European database and file storage, sitting together.
Membership is server written
A client can edit its own profile, never its own access.
Sessions verified server side
An httpOnly cookie, checked on every render, not in the browser.
It opens empty. That is the point.
Name the company, write the first pillar, put three commitments against it. By Friday the week has an account of itself.
