Users create a company profile, define reporting periods, and enter or connect metrics, then generate a structured investor update with executive summary, financial, sales, growth, and operating sections, key wins, risks, goals, and asks. Each metric shows current versus prior period, absolute and percentage change, trend, source, and last-synced time. A deterministic readiness score and investor-confidence score flag missing data and risks before generation, an AI narrative engine drafts and rewrites sections in a chosen tone without inventing numbers, and reports export to PDF or secure view-only share links. Manual metrics and CSV work in V1, with CRM/finance/payment connectors scaffolded.
