I'm building a Chief of Staff system for an EdTech founder.
The goal isn't to add another AI chatbot, but to build a system that helps a founder manage organisational information and operations more effectively.
I'm currently working on a workflow connecting Google Drive, document processing, a structured source of truth, change tracking, and an AI reasoning layer.
The system is designed to help with:
→ Finding relevant information across documents.
→ Building and maintaining organisational context.
→ Tracking changes and keeping information organised.
→ Bringing relevant information together to support decisions.
The bigger idea is to move beyond isolated automations towards a system that understands how different parts of a business fit together.
It's still a work in progress. The real test isn't whether the workflow runs, but whether it reduces operational friction and helps the founder make better decisions.
For those building AI agents and automation systems: what would you prioritise first when building something like this—organisational memory, task execution, or decision support?

Memory first — and it's not close. Execution without organisational memory just automates the wrong things faster, and decision support built on stale context hands the founder confident answers drawn from old documents.

Exactly. That's why I've been building what I call a "Source of Truth" into the system.
Without reliable, up-to-date organisational context, even a well-designed AI agent can make decisions based on incomplete or outdated information. I think that's one of the most critical foundations for effective decision-making.
