Read it the way the director who asks the uncomfortable question will.
The tool that checks your board pack's narrative against its numbers, finds what's missing, and names the three hardest questions a skeptical director is going to ask before they ask them live.
A board pack written by the team it's about inherits that team's blind spots: the improving metric gets a chart, the declining one gets a softer caption. An experienced board isn't fooled by this, and being caught costs credibility.
This tool reads the pack the way a skeptical director does: checking the narrative against the actual numbers, finding what's missing, and naming the pointed questions before the meeting does it for you.
The pack, read the way the hardest director will.
Same pack, same board, run two ways.
A Series B founder is preparing a Q3 board pack. Revenue growth slowed from 22% to 8% quarter over quarter, and churn ticked up slightly.
You ask Claude to review the pack for clarity. You get feedback on slide structure and formatting, maybe a note to tighten the executive summary.
The deck looks cleaner and still frames the growth slowdown as "continued solid momentum," which an attentive board will catch immediately from the chart regardless of the caption.
It checks the narrative against the numbers and finds what's missing:
- →Growth narrative doesn't acknowledge a deceleration to a third of the prior quarter's rate
- →No cohort retention data included, despite a churn uptick that begs the question
- →The budget ask appears only on the final slide with no earlier framing
The review names the three hardest likely questions, what changed, is churn concentrated anywhere, what's the plan and by when, and flags that none currently has a prepared answer in the pack.
The cold version tightened the slides. This found the three questions that were going to derail the meeting.

How is this different from just asking Claude directly?
Asked cold, Claude reviews a board pack for clarity and formatting. This checks the narrative against the actual numbers, finds what an experienced board would expect to see that's missing, and names the three hardest questions likely to come up live, with a note on whether the pack currently has an answer.
Will this work with ChatGPT, Gemini, and other LLMs?
Yes. You get a native Claude Skill (.zip) that auto-invokes in Claude, plus a plain .md you can paste into a ChatGPT Custom GPT, a Gemini system prompt, or any LLM. The procedure travels with the file.
