Execution mode and verification status

Reviewed reporting recipe. The author reconciles source facts and separates them from interpretation; this page does not promise an unattended cross-system report.

Run the workflow

  1. Choose the reporting audience and confidentiality level.
  2. Summarize verified stage movement, new qualified investors, meetings, passes, and open commitments.
  3. Explain what changed in the raise rather than listing every action completed.
  4. Call out risks, missing coverage, overdue decisions, and help needed.
  5. Set the next week's three to five priorities, then review names and sensitive context before sharing.

Worked example

Example report: 'This week: 3 partner meetings, 1 documented pass, 2 diligence requests, and 6 active relationships with dated next actions. Risk: no qualified lead investor in the current pipeline. Next week: send the security package, close the two overdue follow-ups, and add five thesis-matched targets.' Names and probabilities are removed from the board version.

Expected review receipt

  • Every metric has a source, period, and owner
  • Stage movement reconciles to CRM records
  • Facts are separated from author interpretation
  • The audience and confidentiality level are explicit
  • Next-week priorities have owners

Decision checklist

  • Metrics reconcile to CRM records
  • Activity is not presented as progress without an outcome
  • Sensitive investor detail matches the audience
  • Risks and asks are explicit
  • Next-week priorities have owners

Where Finta helps

In a supported, permissioned setup, Finta can organize the relevant CRM record, relationship history, user-provided or connected-source evidence, and next-action workspace for the same review. Aurora can prepare a recommendation or draft; a person remains responsible for checking the evidence and approving consequential changes or communication.

Human approval boundary

A person reviews every external-facing claim, investor name, probability statement, and confidential detail before the report is shared.

Failure states and safe stops

  • The underlying records are stale
  • Different sources use different time windows
  • Engagement is presented as intent
  • The report exposes confidential investor context to the wrong audience

Limitations

  • A weekly report is only as accurate as the underlying records.
  • Engagement signals should not be presented as investment intent.
  • Board and internal versions may require different levels of detail.
