RFL Founder Readiness

Start with the workflow that hurts most.

Copy these answers into an email to start the packet. Short answers are fine. The goal is to identify the highest-value AI, operations, and readiness move first.

Founder basics

Company snapshot

Identity

Company name, website, contact name, contact email, industry, team size, current stage, and main customer type.

Current tools

List the tools already in use: HubSpot, Zendesk, Gmail, Stripe, Notion, Slack, QuickBooks, spreadsheets, custom apps, or anything else.

Deadline

Tell us whether this is urgent, tied to a customer, partner, marketplace, investor, grant, or internal launch deadline.

Workflow need

The core questions

Biggest bottleneck

What workflow currently wastes the most time, money, or attention?

Customer pain

What do customers, users, clients, or team members complain about most?

AI target

What do you want AI to handle first: email, tickets, documents, contracts, sales, support, compliance, follow-up, or something else?

Available material

Can you share sample tickets, emails, forms, docs, workflows, screenshots, or anonymized examples?

Readiness + routing

Partner and build gates

Insurance readiness

Do you currently have business insurance? Are you looking for cyber, professional liability, founder-risk, or other business coverage?

Compliance or security

Are there vendor, customer, security, legal, privacy, or compliance requirements we should factor into the packet?

Referral consent

If the packet reveals a partner fit, do you consent to RFL making an introduction? Yes, no, or ask first.

Boundary

What this packet is and is not.

This is operational review and AI workflow planning. It is not legal, tax, insurance, medical, or financial advice. The packet gives a clear next-step plan and can support implementation scoping or partner routing with consent.
