The problem it solves

Your team has important updates and decisions scattered across dozens of Teams messages and threads, but nobody has time to scroll back through it all. By Monday, half of last week's context is already forgotten.

Who it fits

Project managers and team leads running an active Microsoft Teams channel who want everyone caught up each week without the scroll.

How it works

  1. Every Monday morning the system pulls last week's messages from your Teams channel
  2. It groups the messages by team member
  3. AI reviews each person's activity and pulls out the key highlights
  4. It combines everyone's highlights into one team-wide summary
  5. It posts the summary back to the channel as the first message of the week
What you get

The week's chat caught up in one read

Every Monday your team gets a friendly summary of last week's Teams conversations, so nobody has to scroll back.

What you get

A weekly summary message posted to your Teams channel highlighting what each person worked on.

What you need

A Microsoft Teams account and an OpenAI account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
