🔴 Urgent
HOT BOARD IS 24 DAYS STALE (last updated Feb 13). Objectives sprint ended Feb 22 — 15 days ago with no update. These are the operational sources of truth and both are significantly out of date.
SORENSEN CAPITAL — Last contact Feb 6, 31 days ago. Were supposed to hear Mon/Tue Feb 10-11. No record of follow-up. This was your hottest investor. If there's been contact, log it now. If not, this may be a quiet pass — but you need to know.
REFRACT VC (Caesar) — Last contact Feb 5, 32 days ago. Caesar said "couple of days." Nothing in the file. Same problem: either follow-up happened and wasn't logged, or you've gone dark on a warm investor for a month.
📋 This Week
- Premera — Still no signed contract per huddle (Mar 5). Thomas drafted follow-up email. Has there been a response? This is the only thing that unlocks everything else.
- Sidekick (Hayden Kim) — Call completed Mar 6 (3 days ago). They sent an overview deck. Someone needs to review it and respond.
- McBee (Mikhael) — Ghost pattern. Thomas drafted follow-up Mar 5. Did it go out? What happened?
- Stephen Sammut — Wharton VC professor, agreed to meet week of 3/9. That's this week. Lock in a time today.
- Zen contract — Thomas was drafting cancellation email to Ryan on Mar 5. Confirm it went out and the ~$2,200 negotiation is resolved.

🎯 Suggested Focus
Thomas: (1) Confirm Premera follow-up email went out — if not, send it today. (2) Call or email Caesar at Refract and Chris at Sorensen — a month of silence is unacceptable on your two warmest investors. Even a "just checking in" surfaces whether these are quiet passes or slow processes. (3) Update the hot board and objectives — they're stale enough to be misleading.
Michael: (1) Lock in Stephen Sammut this week — he agreed, the week is now. (2) Review Sidekick's overview deck and respond to Hayden (3 days since call, still fresh). (3) Log what happened on the Feb 26 Violetta call and Feb 27 BCV call — outcomes from both are missing from the system entirely.
